Tye Dying Easter Eggs~

This year I tried something a little different. I found this idea on Pinterest and thought I'd be pretty neat to try. It was actually really easy..follow below.

First off you need ties. 100% silk ties, I went to value village and picked up these few.i would suggest going to a Salvation Army or an actually Thrift store. These ties still cost 5 dollars which is pricy if you want to do a few of them. 

Next you cut the lining of the ties. And cut the tie to fit the egg.

Try to get the tie as tight and smooth around the egg as possible. It will transfer the pattern better.

You then have to use an old pillow case which I bought also at value village and tie it around your already tied egg. Then put them in a pot and cover with water.

You also need to add a 1/2 cup of white vinegar to the pot of eggs. Then boil for 20 minutes. Once the eggs have been boiled you can remove them and place them on a towel and let cool. 

Once cooled..remove the tie and pillowcase and check out the design. 

Pretty cool isn't it! I was surprised with how well they turned out. It was fun too..u think my family thought this wasn't going to turn out, but look at that..proved the wrong didn't i..lol

Love them!
