Fun Easter Egg Designs

 Today is all about dying easter eggs. I've been using the same dyes all of my life, but this year I couldn't find my favorite dying kits. I got to thinking about creative ways to decorate eggs and this blog post was born. I spent a few hours experimenting with different techniques and I'm sharing my favorites. 


Chicken Heads

Orange Construction Papper
Black permeant marker
Yellow feather
Glue gun/ rubber cement/ clear drying glue

Dye eggs yellow and allow to dry
Cut diamond shape out of orange construction paper

 
Hot glue it to middle of egg like a beak

Make 2 eyes with black permeant marker

Glue feathers in top of egg as hair 

Doodle Eggs

Grab a black permeant marker and go crazy



Rubber Cement Eggs
4-5 different color egg dyes
Rubber cement


Drizzle rubber cement over eggs and allow to dry

Drop in egg dye and let sit for 2-3 minutes

Remove and allow to dry
Rub off rubber cement 
Repeat this process until your happy with your egg


Natural Dyes



Why should I place my unfertilized organic eggs in a dying chemical when there are plenty of natural dyes all around us

I had all the ingredients in my kitchen already

Blue/purple - Blueberries
Red - Beets
Yellow - Turmeric
Green - Pureed spinach 






Boil eggs in same pot as dying agents

I boiled my produce then placed them in bowls with boiled eggs

Whatever method you decide on natural dying is easy, healthy, and environmentally friendly

That's all today Folks!
