If you're anything like me, you probably aren't too keen on dying your Easter eggs with the harmful chemicals and artificial colors found in most commercial Easter egg coloring kits. Instead, using vibrantly colored foods and spices as natural dye yields gorgeous, softly hued eggs that you can actually eat.
Try this Dye DIY from Two Tarts via Food52, or if you’d prefer for someone else to prep your vinegar and veggies (like me) you can purchase the Eco-Eggs kit from Eco-Kids: 3 powdered dyes, an egg dipper and a natural crayon for texturing your eggs. If you want your eggs to be more on the pastel side as mine are, I recommend leaving eggs in the dyes for only 1 to 5 minutes as opposed to the 15 minutes the instructions suggest, then rinsing with water or wiping with a paper towel (or both).
And if even that sounds like too much work, eco eggs are plant-based plastic Easter eggs that are non-toxic, reusable and fully compostable.
