- Before starting to paint, it is recommended that the eggs are at room temperature. It is also desirable to choose such that are white color. If you can't find them in a nearby store, you can bleach them. The eggs will color better if they are snow white.
- If you are going to dye the pire with artificial dyes, it is important to follow the manufacturer's instructions, i.e. what should be the ratio between dye and water. Supposedly, you can also strengthen the dye by making it dissolve in a cup of apple cider vinegar, which will ensure that the color adheres more strongly to the eggshell.
- Add to the water in which you will cook the eggs a spoonful of salt and vinegar. Leave the boiled eggs in the color for a longer time if you want richly colored pies. Turn the eggs while they soak in the dye.
HOW TO CREATE SNOW WHITE EGGS?
The eggs you will be dyeing will probably have a brown shell, so they won't look as good eggs with a white shell. But with a simple process, you can create snow-white eggs!
Prepare a mixture of white vinegar and water, in a ratio of 1:1. Boil the eggs for 10 minutes and clean them under running water after cooking. The brown shell will discolor, and you will get snow-white eggs.
