Decorate Easter Eggs with Dye

Boil your eggs

Place your eggs in a pot of cold water and turn on the heat. Allow the eggs to boil for around 15 minutes.

Prepare your dye

To dye one egg, add half a cup of water, a teaspoon of vinegar, and 20 drops of your chosen food coloring.

One container per color

Don’t risk mixing colors at random. Use an entirely different container for each colored dye, to ensure a vibrant coloring for your eggs.

Submerge your eggs

One at a time, place your eggs in the prepared dyes. Use a spoon to lower the egg into the dye. Leave the egg submerged for five minutes.

Create multi-colored eggs

Dip only a portion of the egg to dye half of it, before doing the other side in a different color. Be sure to leave to dry fully in between.
