Our Natural Eggs

I purchased this all natural egg dying kit from my produce co-op because I thought it would be a neat experience. I wasn't sure what it would come with. What it came with was a bag of various produce, no instructions or anything. So I looked on line to try and get an idea of what to do. Basically you boil down the produce until you get a die and then color your eggs. I wasn't' sure how it would all turn out but I thought at least it would make for a good science experiment for the kids.




















The eggs weren't the most vibrant color but they were colored, the best color producers where the beets, blueberries, and Onion skin.
























It was a lot of extra work and a lot of extra mess but it was good fun! I think next year I might switch back to the kits.
