When Great Grandpa passed away, we were left with tons of ties. We decided to use some of his ties to dye eggs this Easter.
First, we cut apart some of Great Grandpa's 100% silk ties. Then, we wrapped the front side of the tie around raw eggs. We used a twist tie to secure them tightly. Then, we wrapped the egg with string. Once it was wrapped, we covered it with the white tie liner and secured it with another twist tie. We placed all of the eggs in a pot full of water with 1/3 cup vinegar. Finally, we boiled the eggs for 20 minutes.
Our Tie-Dyed Easter Eggs!
The girls love our Tie-Dyed Easter Eggs, even though they aren't as brilliantly colored as we had hoped.
We will remember many wonderful Easters with Great Grandpa while we hunt these special Easter Eggs!
