Today, the little one and I decided to make some lovely Easter Eggs. So we went to our local grocery store and bought some fun supplies to make our Easter Eggs. Well, Sophia was quite excited about Easter, so she really wanted to start making her eggs really early. We started to boil our eggs and after it was done, we set them aside to cool down.
We opened our PAAS package, and it sure had some fun supplies inside which included stickers, 6 dyed tablets and other decorative items. Yep, it all screamed fun, fun, fun.
I pretty much followed the directions from the package and took 6 bowls and filled them with water and vinegar. Sophia placed a dye tablet in each bowl and watched them as they made a fuzzy sound while dissolving slowly. Then we put an egg in each bowl, and let it sit and soak for a while.
After the eggs were all nice and colorful, Sophia and I started to place stickers on them. They had other items but, Sophia wanted the stickers, LOL. Now, it was time to place the eggs in our basket and we were done. Voila! Wasn’t that easy?
Now, go and make some wonderful colorful Easter Eggs and give that special someone an Easter Basket. How fun would that be. Enjoy!
Sincerely,
So cute! We’ll be doing ours in a few more days too!
These are SO cute! Happy Easter!!! 🙂
she looks like she had fun! 🙂 we are doing ours friday
I remember dying eggs when I was little – can’t wait til my daughter is old enough. 🙂
Your eggs are so vibrant! Maybe I have to be more patient and le them sit longer. We will see how it goes on Friday 😉
oh, Thanks. I had to let them sit and soak for about 45 minutes or so 🙂 But they turned out great 🙂
they turned out great!
they look great and looks like you had a great time! If you want more vibrant color for next year, a friend gave me this recipe: 2 tbsp white vinegar, 2 cups warm water and 10 drops food coloring – you can also use it as a color theory lesson by mixing and matching your colors!
Thanks for these tips…I always look for ways to make my Easter Eggs more vibrant…I have to try it out. Thanks a bunch!
I’m doing this with my son this week! Isn’t it so fun. We actually have leftovers (dye) from last year that we’re going to use and then we’ll sprinkle some glitter (from our craft supplies) on them. Nice and frugal this year.
Wow, I love glitter on the Easter Eggs idea- definitely will look beautiful 🙂
Oh! Decorating Easter Eggs is one of my favorite things to do for Easter! Looks like you had a wonderful time!
I love making Easter Eggs! I’m so excited for when my little one will be old enough to do it with me! Right now she would just dye herself and the floor… lol!
As stupid as it may sound, I’ve never used stickers!!!!!! Can you believe it? This year I got sticker faces though for henry to try – I can’t wait!
I’m featuring this on my 2 dozen ideas and techniques to dye Easter Eggs today!
