Step cooking
First way
- Boil five hard boiled eggs. We dilute food colorings with water according to the instructions on the package. We will need three glasses of hot water, into which we pour 9% vinegar in a tablespoon. Add a small amount of dye to each glass so that the eggs are pastel shades. If you want a more saturated color, then you need to add more dye. Put the egg in a glass with dye for 1-2 minutes. So repeat with each color. As a result, we get two blue, two pink and one yellow egg. At your request, you can take other colors as a basis.
- Take white gouache and a brush or cotton swab. We draw peas with white gouache on each egg and leave to dry.
- After drying, gouache is not smeared and does not get dirty hands.
Second way
- Boil two hard-boiled eggs and let cool. Using a marker, draw cute faces on the eggs. You can draw everything that your imagination prompts. The main thing is to get cute and beautiful.
- You can decorate the eggs with greens on top, simulating hair.
Third way
This method is intended for coloring decorative eggs. You do not need to cook them.- We take three eggs. Shake each fresh egg well and make two holes with a sharp object: above and below.
- Blow out or gently shake out the contents of each egg in a plate. From it you can make an omelet or use for baking.
- Next, pour hot water into the bowl and add a few drops of varnish to the surface. Water must be hot so that the varnish does not settle. The more drops of varnish we add, the denser and richer the picture will be.
- In order to have less stains on the egg, add vegetable oil to the bowl. but this is not necessary. We put a glove on our hand and gently lower the egg into the water, slowly rotate it so that the varnish film covers the shell. If necessary, we make two or three such dips so that the egg is evenly colored.
- After that, we put the eggs to dry on a toothpick stuck in something soft. Usually they dry quite quickly.
- Eggs painted in this way are used to decorate the table and interior.
