Ombre EasterEggs Pinned by allfreekidscrafts.com
Last year’s biggest fashion trend makes its way to your kid’s Easter basket.
Supplies:
- Hard Boiled Eggs
- Food Coloring
- Vinegar
- Hot Water
- Cups
- Egg Holder (or small ladle)
Directions
1. Lay out 4 cups for dipping the eggs.
2. Add 1 teaspoon of white vinegar to each cup.
3. Add 3/4 cup of hot water to each cup.
4. Then, vary the amount of food coloring you add to each cup, increasing it from the first to the last. I chose to use 10 drops, 1/8 tsp, 1/4 tsp, and 1/2 tsp.
5. Then starting with the first cup with the least amount of coloring and dip the egg all the way in.
6. With the second cup, only dip the egg 3/4 of the way in, the third cup 1/2 of the way in, and the last one only 1/4 of the way end so only the bottom of the egg is in the darkest colored water.
You may have to play with how long you dip the egg in each cup to determine how dark you want the result.
