Colored Eggs

I like to color eggs with Dillon every Easter (and Reid too once he's old enough). He loves it and its very simple to do.



  • 1 cup hot water

  • 1 tbsp vinegar

  • food coloring

Combine ingredients, doing as many colors as you like. The more food coloring you put in and the longer the eggs are left in, the darker the color. Dry on wire rack with paper towel underneath so dye does not stain.


Options: 1.) Draw a design with a wax crayon before dyeing. 2.) To do different colors, wax between dippings. The wax can be removed in oven till wax melts. Wipe off.
