How to make it
Don't eat these eggs, since tie dyes aren't food safe.
1Cut the silk
Open the tie seams. Cut squares big enough to wrap an egg.
2Wrap the eggs
Wrap each egg with the printed side touching the shell. Twist the ends tight.
3Add the outer layer
Wrap a cotton square over the silk. Close it with a twist tie.
4Boil them
Grown-up step: put eggs in a pot, cover with water, add vinegar, and simmer 20 minutes.
5Cool and unwrap
Lift them out and let them cool. Unwrap to see the print.
6Shine them
Rub a drop of vegetable oil on each one for a soft shine.
Look for 100% silk on the tag. Polyester ties won't transfer.
