Easter Eggs!

I had meant to post this a little earlier, but hopefully it’s still early enough. If you’re planning on dying Easter eggs and you haven’t bought them yet, try using brown eggs. You can get nice deep colors that you can’t get with white eggs. We do three dozen, and do a mix of white and brown eggs so we have a lot of different colors.

That’s all, really. I guess this can be a general Easter egg discussion thread.

I’ll share a technique for making “tie-dyed” Easter eggs. Take an egg and wrap it in a kleenex. Get an eye dropper and drop several different colors around the egg - for instance, some green, some blue and some purple makes a nice combination. Let the egg sit in the dyed kleenex for a few minutes, then peel the tissue off. You get an egg with kind of a swirly dyed pattern.

Can you just dye the eggs brown, then when they’re set, re-dye them to get the richer palette?
