Why don't you try using the materials listed and an idea from your brain? That would make it YOUR project and YOUR experiment. Good Luck

Well, lets see, first i would seal one end of the straw, heat the straw til it melts a little and with a spoon press it together to form a heat seal, then carefully fill the straw with cooking oil and seal the other end, now you have 100 straws with an oil cousion, weave the straws , first virtically and then horizonally around the egg like a basket, by the time you have used all the straws you will have a very thick shield, hope it works, nothing but straws are used as the test requires.
