This may be a little late to be posting egg pictures. But I tried something new and have to report the findings! I tried boiling eggs with onion skins in the water to color them. Apparently this has been a very common practice in Russia for many years. Perhaps it is popular in many other countries? Anyway, it works beautifully, and I rather like the color/effect. Using natural materials for coloring/dying is very appealing to me.
Many years ago I did a chemistry project using natural dyes, and onion skins worked great! Looks like they still do. Did you try anything else like beets?
ReplyDeleteMe too. That color is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI understand mustard seed does a beautiful color too.

ReplyDeleteYour arrangement is beautiful! I colored eggs with tea once and loved how they turned out.
