3 Easy Ways to Make Patterned Easter Eggs

1. Floral Print: Use cheesecloth to wrap small leaves and other foliage around the egg before dipping it in a dye bath. Unwrap the egg after coloring and you’ll find fun floral prints.

2. Sticker Print: Place stickers on the egg before dying. Remove stickers after the dye has dried to reveal patterns. This could also work with masking tape to crate easy chevrons and other striped patterns.

3. Rubber Band Print: Wrap the egg with rubber bands before dying. Place all the rubber bands in the same direction or criss cross to create unique patterns.
