Ingredients
- 12 pieces White eggs
- 6 colors Liquid food coloring
- 0.5 cup Distilled white vinegar
- 4 cups Water
- 1 roll Paper towels
- 1 pair Plastic gloves
- 12 pieces Rubber bands
- 1 unit Spray bottle
Directions
Step 1
Place the eggs in a pot, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes to hard-boil the eggs.
Step 2
Carefully remove the eggs and transfer them to an ice water bath to cool completely. Dry the eggs thoroughly using a towel.
Step 3
Mix the distilled white vinegar and 4 cups of water in a spray bottle. Shake well to combine.
Step 4
Cut the paper towels into squares large enough to wrap around each egg individually.
Step 5
Place an egg in the center of a paper towel square. Using plastic gloves to protect your hands, drip liquid food coloring onto the paper towel-covered egg. Use multiple colors for a tie-dye effect.
Step 6
Lightly spritz the wrapped egg with the vinegar and water solution from the spray bottle. This helps the colors blend together.
Step 7
Twist the ends of the paper towel around the egg and secure it with a rubber band, ensuring the paper towel stays tightly in place.
Step 8
Repeat the process for all the eggs. Let the eggs sit for about 1 hour to allow the colors to set and intensify.
Step 9
Carefully remove the rubber bands and unwrap the paper towels to reveal your tie-dye Easter eggs.
Step 10
Let the eggs dry completely before displaying or serving. Enjoy your beautiful, homemade tie-dye Easter eggs!
