Hello all,
Easter will be here before you know it. Time to think about your decorations, parties and egg dying. But are you tired of making your easter eggs the same way? I know I am. I found some creative ideas to make egg dying fun again. Enjoy:
1. Dying eggs with shaving cream-
DIRECTIONS:
Using white shaving cream (not gel) spread it out in a pan.
Sprinkle drops from different colors of food coloring along the shaving cream. Neon works best.
Swirl your colors through the shaving cream.
Take a hard boiled egg and roll it in through the cream in the pan.
Let them dry for about 5 minutes then wipe off excess and rinse with water,
This makes gorgeous marbled looking eggs. But keep in mind, you can't eat these.

Moisten a paper towel with vinegar and wrap it around a hard boiled egg.
Don't make the layers too thick.
