Tye Dyed Easter Eggs
Want an easy, fun way to decorate your Easter eggs this year?
SUPPLIES:
Eggs, hard-boiled, boiled in a saucepan of water with 1 tbsp of vinegar added
or blown eggs
food coloring in assorted colors
paper towels
plastic wrap
old shirt or apron
INSTRUCTIONS:
This is such an easy way to make tie dyed Easter eggs - and very pretty too.
Boil your eggs or blow the eggs out if you wish to keep them permanently.
To blow out an egg:
Poke a small hole in each end of the egg. Use a long needle or skewer to break the yoke. Hold the egg over a bowl and blow hard through one hole until the egg has emptied out of the shell. Rinse with water, let dry, and decorate.
To Tie Die Eggs:
Take a paper towel and dampen the towel with water and vinegar, making sure it is just damp.
Place a piece of plastic wrap under the paper towel.
Drip small drops of food coloring onto the paper towel. Allow colors to drop next to each other so they bleed slightly together. Make sure there is enough area with food color to cover egg.
Wrap an egg in the paper towel and the plastic wrap. The longer you keep the egg in the brighter the egg will get.
Repeat until all your eggs are tie dyed. Every one will be different, but all of them will be pretty.
