all about color!

we had so much fun coloring easter eggs out on the patio this year!
at first i filled up lots of little containers with the normal vinegar, water and color set up.
but we started to get a bit antsy waiting for our eggs to color up. so we added some vinegar to a bowl, swirled the egg around to coat it, and then swirled the egg around, dropping blue and yellow coloring right on top.
we loved the tie-dye effect and kept on repeating the process to create layers of color.
we tried dropping color straight onto the eggs to add another layer. 
and for some i drew with crayon…
but that never lasted long…we just kept going with the layers and dipping them, then tie-dying again!
it was so fun to watch them evolve…
just like a painting!
