Instructions
- In a large pot put some water on to boil. Once it's ready add the eggs and boil for about 12 minutes. Make sure they are hard-boiled.
- Let them cool when ready in cold tap water.
- In each of the small bowls or cups, pour enough hot water to cover the egg completely.
- Add 1 tablespoon of white vinegar to each bowl and 1 to 2 drops of food coloring. You can use a toothpick or skewer to add the food coloring, so it doesn't get too dark. This also depends on the tone you want. If you would like them darker, add around 3 to 5 drops.
- Protect your work area with paper towels.
- Place the egg inside the bowl and leave it for about 5 minutes. If you would like a darker hue leave the egg for a few more minutes. Grab the tongs and carefully pull out the egg.
- Remove eggs from dye with tongs.
- Place on paper towel to dry.
- Repeat steps until all eggs are colored.
- Once you have finished with all the eggs, let them dry, and you are ready to use!
- Have fun!
Notes
- Want pastel-colored eggs? Omit the vinegar.
- For vibrant eggs, make sure to use the vinegar, add more color, and let them sit for a longer period of time.
- Gel food coloring works best.
- Make sure the eggs are fully dry before dyeing.
