  2. We used to do Pysanki Easter Egg dyeing when the kids were young. It involves India Ink and fancy patterns. A lot of work but beautiful when done!

    ReplyDelete
  3. I've always done the easy dip dye, but I'd like to try using silk ties.

    ReplyDelete
  4. I like their free "Quilter's Toolbox". You can plug fabrics into a quilt pattern and see how they "play" together!

  5. My favorite way? Let our chickens do the work! I have 18 hens that lay all different colors--all shades of browns, olive and blue. I haven't colored eggs in years! LOL

    ReplyDelete
  6. I visited the site: I'm typically a "prints" kind of person but the moda bella solids make just the greatest backgrounds. Currently wanting to make a 9-patch on a yellow background so that would be my fav! The price is nice too!

  8. I like to die eggs with an onion peel dye. They come out a beautiful rust/copper color.

    ReplyDelete
  9. We make cascarones, or confetti eggs, a Latino tradition from our days when we lived in San Antonio. You make a hole in the top of the egg and drain the inside out, then dye as usual. When dry, you fill the inside with confetti and glue tissue paper over the hole. On Easter you crack the eggs over everyone’s heads and cover them with confetti!

  11. My favorite way to dye Easter eggs is dip dying

    ReplyDelete
  12. I haven't dyed eggs in years, but we used to use the dip dyes that you bought at the store. They were tablets you dropped in vinegar water (I think - Mom always took care of that part) and then dipped the eggs in using a flimsy wire dipper. It was fun!
