Onion peels, goodbye: I dye eggs for Easter in a “cosmic” way – I get all the colors of the rainbow on the shell

The bright holiday of Easter is approaching. So, it's time to think about how to decorate eggs. Many people dye them in onion skins, but if you want to make the dyes unusual, try this simple method. The shells will turn out juicy, rich and incredibly bright.

Ingredients:

  • eggs – 20 pcs.;
  • paints – 4 colors;
  • paper napkins;
  • rubber bands for money;
  • gloves;
  • water;
  • table vinegar 9%.

Cooking method

Wash the eggs in warm water and baking soda. Then boil the eggs hard, cool and wipe each egg dry. In disposable cups, dilute the paints according to the instructions and add 1 tablespoon of 9% vinegar.

Then we tear plain white napkins into small squares, wrap the eggs in them and secure the napkin with an elastic band so that it holds tightly. Next, we drip paint onto a napkin in a chaotic manner: first we take one color, then add another.

There is no need to try to make it beautiful, because the more randomly the drops fall, the more interesting the drawing will be. Leave the eggs in the napkins for 25 minutes. During this time, the paint saturates the napkin and creates a pattern on the shell.

After the time has passed, carefully remove the napkins and admire the result. Lubricate the finished eggs with a drop of vegetable oil for shine.

Important Tips

  • use eggs only with white shells;
  • don't be afraid to mix colors;
  • Wear gloves before starting work.
