This is such a fun way to dye eggs with no mess from dye! It makes incredible eggs!!!
1. Cut silk from a tie or old blouse (I found some good ones at the thrift store) into squares large enough to wrap around an egg (it must be 100% silk)
2. Wrap the raw egg with the silk making sure the prited side of the material is facing the egg and secure with a twisty tie
3.Wrap the silk-wrapped egg in a piece of muslin or an old pillow case (this will prevent the dye from transfering to other eggs) and again use a twisty tie to secure it again.
4. Place the eggs in a pot of boiling water with 4-5 TBSP of vinegar and boil for 20-30 min
5. Remove the eggs and let them cool, unwrap them and this is what you get!!!! You can also rub with a little vegatable oil to make them shinny
