No way were my rubber bands doing anything like that. <br /><br />I think I'm going to have to buy a bunch of dye once they go on clearance and tackle these again.Anna (herding cats-burning soup)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17422129120413380189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9071306572651203668.post-13274727812740933612012-04-05T13:35:23.972-04:002012-04-05T13:35:23.972-04:00I wonder how thin strips of masking tape would wor...I wonder how thin strips of masking tape would work? I think the brightness of the color depends on how long it the egg sits in the dye.

Total desaster. Yours actually look really good!<br />What I usually do is wrapping the eggs in tissue (not too much though), securing it with a rubber band then dyeing them. Gives them a nice uneven color and there's not too much that can go wrong.Marisa Yasminhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15883698805746375556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9071306572651203668.post-64148513437036006622012-04-05T05:29:52.704-04:002012-04-05T05:29:52.704-04:00I'm just a plain Jane egg dyer...tablets and v...I'm just a plain Jane egg dyer...tablets and vinegar and maybe I get a tad artistic with a crayon before dipping them in the vinegar and tablet dye.
