Dye-ing


Looking at the calender I realized that Easter will soon be upon us. So, that being said - I am working on making homemade dyes for Easter eggs. This one is made from purple cabbage. The color of the dye is amazing ! The deepest purple you've ever seen. And guess what - the eggs dyed light blue. I also used two different methods with beets and one with tumeric.

I am not posting pictures of the dyed eggs yet as they are drying and I have to buy straw or hay to display them in a basket.
