I'd never before heard of the "tie dye" egg
method—but after spending an afternoon trying it out, I can vouch
that not only is it completely mess- and hassle-free, the results
look amazing. In fact, this weekend, I'm planning on hitting the
flea market to pick up a few silk neckties for my own eggs. Want to
give this technique a try? Here's how: |
| |
What you’ll need:
-Silk ties
-Eggs
-White rags (like an old t-shirt or sheet)
-Rubber bands
-Household Vinegar |
| |
What to do:
1. Cut silk ties into square pieces of fabric (large enough to
cover an egg).
2. Cut even larger squares out of the white rags.
3. Place egg in center of a silk square, with the printed side
facing the egg. Wrap fabric around the egg.
4. Place silk-wrapped egg on white square. Gather edges and
secure the "sack" with a rubber band.
5. Place eggs in large non-aluminum pot. Fill with enough water to
cover the eggs.
6. Add a few glugs of vinegar to the pot; bring water to a boil.
Reduce heat; let simmer 25 minutes.
7. Use a slotted spoon to remove eggs from water and let cool
before removing the fabric.
8. For more vibrantly colored eggs, wipe with a little vegetable
oil once dry. |
