Materials

Hardboiled eggs

  • Small leaves
  • Old panty hose
  • Elastic bands
  • Food colouring
  • 1 cup of water

Directions

Step 1: Hold your leaf on the side of your egg in the position you want.

Step 3: In a cup, mix six or seven drops of food colouring with water and then gently place the egg in the liquid.

Step 4: After a few minutes, remove the egg and take off the panty hose and leaf to reveal the design.

Step 5: Allow dyed egg time to dry.
