Easter Eggs

We tried natural dyes last weekend on our Easter eggs.

• pickled beet juice = bright pink
• red cabbage = beautiful bright blue
• beets = brown
• coffee = brown
• orange peels = not yellow (my research told me it would)
• grape juice = purple (but it was a slimy skin on the eggs that would rub off, weird)

Next year I'll be trying out more of these ideas. Maybe I'll have more luck getting a yellow egg. I trust these ideas, as they admit that beets + vinegar turns eggs brown, NOT pink as other people indicated.

I'd show you pictures if I had any (really disappointed I forgot my camera). But, this post will help me next year, so I don't lose this information :)
