Silk Tie-Dyed Eggs.




1. Cut silk into a piece large enough to wrap around a raw egg.
2. Wet silk and wrap around the egg and twist the extra silk at the top and bottom of the egg like a tootsie roll. The tighter the silk is wrapped around the egg will result in the best overall pattern, for a tie dyed look, crumple silk around egg…. See More
3. Place the silk-wrapped egg in a piece of wet white sheet, pillowcase, or old tablecloth and secure tightly with a string.
4. Place the egg(s) in an enamel or glass pot. Fill pot with water to cover eggs completely. Then, add half a cup of white vinegar.
5. Bring water to a boil, turn heat down, and simmer for 20 minutes.
6. Remove eggs from water and let cool.
7. Remove silk from cooled egg.
8. To shine the eggs, wipe with vegetable oil


I figured it was a good time of the year to post this.
