so I *finally* got around to dying eggs...the silk kind

GBCK

'cuz going all Martha Stewart on things was actually EASIER than trying to make them pretty in any other way.
And there only being 2 of us, I only made like 7.

But 75c of thrift store ties later, I hope the PIP works:

Wow.  That looks like a lot of work.

It's actually not...
wrap the eggs in bits of 100% silk (real silk, printed side facing the egg) then wrap the silky egg in white fabric (old sheet cut into squares)--tie that on in some way--I used twist-ties to just wrap them into wee egg bundles.

Then put in pot of water + vinegar.  Boil.

ta-da :-)

I was looking at her magazine yesterday and saw her vinyl stickies eggs. Made me want to make easter eggs.

Those are beautiful! I always want to dye eggs, but I have nothing to do with the eggs afterwards!
