These are so neat...I always try to do a few like this each year...

I used to work with a girls who was from Litawania (sp??) and she said this is how they always did eggs...She had no idea what 'easter egg dye was'....

What a fantastic idea and beautiful outcome!!!

You could use beet juice to make red/purple ones, I bet.

Oooh, I'm gonna try that! I bet that beet juice on one of my pale brown eggs would be amazing.
I am also gonna try a Martha Stewart thing that someone posted yesterday. You wrap lace around the egg.

I tried using rosemary and cilantro, secured by a piece of pantyhose. That worked pretty good. I also used lace, which created a very faint pattern.

See for yourself:

I am not the expert craft person, so I was happy to get un-ugly eggs.

I can see the lace on the green one! Great job! I tried lace and it didn't look that great. Thanks for the picture
