"GUM BAND" Easter Egg Dying


Or Rubber Band To All Non PIttsburghers

This is simple for kids or you can get really fancy by dunking the eggs repeatedly to create a cool, striped effect. 

First, wrap rubber bands around the egg (gently!) before dunking. I like wrapping a couple of bands around the eggs to create a layered, artful effect.

 

 Dunk the eggs in the colored water bath until desired depth is achieved. 

 

Remove from the bath and let dry for about 15 – 20 minutes. 

 

Remove rubber bands when the eggs are fully dry.  

 

LAST STEP: MARVEL with your children at JUST HOW PRETTY THEY ARE!
