Easter Eggs Made With Natural Egg Dyes
I used water, vinegar and cabbage leaves for the icky light purple and water, vinegar and yellow onion skins for the dark red brown eggs. They were put in raw and boiled with the dye. I got the "recipes" from Lady Tawodi.

ha ha, they still look very neat! I will have to post some pictures sometime!
I do like how they came out, they are much more original looking than traditional easter egg dyes!
Tessa thinks that they look like Dragon Eggs.
Those are gorgeous - such rich color! Ha ha - dragon eggs.
thanks candy! Tessa is cute, huh?
why didn't you use that cheap dye from the store? is it poiseness?
No Beanie, it isn't. We did the normal pastel colored ones first and then I found the other site and did these.
if you have food coloring, you don't need the packaged crap. Just mix the food coloring with water and vinegar.
I must say also that these eggs boiled in the vinegar water peel very nicely!!!
Oooo I like those colors!
You hippie! Hee hee hee!
I do like the colors, though....they would make a good centerpiece for Thanksgiving dinner too!
mcbunni- yeah they would!!!
I'm still eating eggs...I wonder how long they stay good for...
Wow, I like those. They're cool.
I got the same sort of recipe but from.....gasp..martha stewart..she covered them with lace too and dyed in coffee/tea...beet juice, onion skins, etc..so cool....the oiled ones looked terrific..
