Easter is coming soon, it\u2019s time for painting eggs. Let\u2019s use natural dyes instead of artificial paints available in shops. Several vegetables and fruits contain easy dissolving and intensive pigments.
\nAdd water and the required natural pain in a cooking pot. Boil it for 30 minutes then remove it from the heat. Add salt and 20% vinegar. When it is room-temperature, put boiled eggs in it. It\u2019s practical to choose eggs with white shell, hues will be much clearer. The intensity of the color can be a bit affected by the time the eggs soaking in the coloring water. If they are ready, take them out and let them dry on a grill. The process above has to be done every time a new color is desired.
\nSince natural dyes are more unpredictable than chemicals, prepare ourselves that we won\u2019t get exactly the expected result. Colors of the eggs in the same dying are not always similar also. Here are some natural dying materials and the effect colors, without limitation:
\nSpinach, parsley \u2013 light green
\nCoffee \u2013 light brown
\nPeel of onion \u2013 light orange
\nRed cabbage \u2013 light blue
\nBlueberry \u2013 blue
\nBeetroot, peel of red onion \u2013 soft pink
\nSaffron, turmeric, carrot \u2013 yellow
\nRed vine \u2013 light purple
\nColors achieved this way are less intensive than those by artificial paints to which we might be accustomed. These pastel shades will look good in interiors with almost any style.<\/p>\n
