How To Do This Creative Easter Egg Dying Tissue Paper Technique

I love that you don’t need to use vinegar for this method. Kids hate the smell of vinegar and you can’t control the colors of the eggs well. This is such a great alternative method to dying eggs – you may never go back to the old version.

What You’ll Need:

• Hardboiled Eggs
• Bleeding Tissue Paper (Has to say bleeding for it to work – like this version from Amazon)
• Spray Bottle of Water
• Paper Towels/Newspaper 
• Optional: Latex/Plastic Gloves 

Cut tissue paper into small pieces. They don’t have to be perfect, we made some rectangle, square, and triangle.

Place the hardboiled eggs on layers of paper towels or newspaper. Spray the eggs with water and place pieces of tissue paper all over it. Mix and match colors to give it a super fun look.

Use gloves at this point if you do not want any coloring on your hands because it will transfer off the tissue paper. We did not use gloves and the coloring was off our hands by the next day.

Once the paper is placed on the egg, spray the egg again with water making sure all the tissue paper is laying down. Let dry.

Once the tissue paper is dried, peel it off the egg and discard. You’ll be left with a gorgeous looking Easter Egg!!

Store in refrigerator if you plan on eating them.
