Easter Eggs

Do you remember using the wax crayon in the egg dyeing kit to write your name or to create designs on the egg before it was dipped in the dye? Do you still dye eggs for your Easter table?

The Mister is an egg dying maniac. I have to boil at least an 18 pack to give him enough to play with. I used to use the leftover dye to dye wool but the formula has changed and it's not so pretty anymore. It's too pale. It used to be brilliant.
ReplyDeleteFun yarn! What is it? We don't dye eggs these days - it's just Fletch and me...but maybe I should dye some and take them to Colin & Mailing. Or suggest a dyeing party at their place. I do remember those wax crayons...I think my brothers would write or draw not so pleasant things.....
ReplyDeleteI do remember dying Easter eggs as a kid. My girls were never very interested so we only did it a couple of times. I did buy some kits this year to send to the grandkids.
ReplyDeleteI remember how HARD it was to write neatly on an egg. LOL
ReplyDeleteNo kids at home anymore so we don't dye eggs.
I haven't dyed eggs for years!
ReplyDeleteIn Brownies, we used wax, rubber bands, tape... all kinds of things to make designs before dipping them in dye.
Love the sock yarn.
We did not dye any eggs last year! we were in Mexico for Easter. I love how your colors are striping on these socks!
ReplyDeleteI like the sock/yarn! Yes, I always used the wax crayon for dyeing eggs! I will probably dye some this year with the boys!
ReplyDeleteYes and it was hard to get it on the egg straight! Love your sock yarn, it will be interesting to see how it colors as you progress:)
ReplyDeleteWe never got into egg dying. My daughter was allergic and couldn't even touch an egg shell without breaking out until she was 12 or 13.
ReplyDeleteI love the way your socks are striping. Hope the foot will be as pretty.
Interesting sock yarn! Right now my sock yarn is really pooling, and I can't decide whether it's the pattern or the yarn or both. No dyeing here as kids are long gone.
