How to Dye Easter Eggs

Video Transcript

"Hi, I'm Gary for Expert Village. Now once we've put the flowers and leaves on our egg and we've closed them inside the panty hose, we are ready to place them inside the dye and the way we do that is we take our solution of, we leave the skins of the onion inside cause this is going to be kind of, first of all it's going to enable us to wrap the eggs with the leaves and to get more color to soak into the egg shell. Another reason why placing the eggs inside the solution with the egg skins is that it's going to help prevent them from banging into each other. Because we're going to be putting this on the fire and if we didn't have the onion skins still inside the solution, they can basically float around and they will hit each other and again it will just be another way for the images, the flowers and the leaves that we place on the egg just to become out of place. So we want to just really secure them inside the solution, our dye solution with the skins of the onion."
