Eggs!

Adam wanted to try something new with our Easter Eggs this year. Of course, we still used the regular stuff and died a gazillion eggs in Paas, but Adam read online about wrapping eggs in silk ties. We're never one to do things the easy way, so of course, we had to give it a try!

I tried to capture the process, but as you'll see, these pictures show two different ties.

Adam & his mom got the process down using four hands and twine. Adam says next year, he's going to use string so only two hands will be needed. The twine was what we had on hand and was really difficult to remove.

Once the tie is held in place with tie is trimmed,

and then white cloth is tied over the tie to hold the silk in place.


Then it's placed in the pan. (Read directions from link above...).


And after a LONG boil.... These beauties come out! Very fun, Very Unique eggs!
