Make Your Own Natural Egg Dyes


Natural Egg Dyes

Use these natural dyes for pretty Easter eggs.

For pinkish red - use fresh beets
For orange - use yellow onion skins
For yellow - use ground turmeric
For pale green - use spinach leaves
For blue - use canned blueberries
For beige to brown - use strong brewed coffee
For brown-orange - use chili powder

Place eggs in a saucepan, then cover with water. Add a tablespoon of white vinegar per each cup of water used and one of the natural items above depending on the color you want. Simmer eggs for 20 minutes.

The darker you want the color use more of the naturals and for a lighter color use less.
