Natural and Silk Easter Egg Dyeing

ABOUT THIS EVENT
Event Category

Arts & DIY

Event Overview

We will use natural materials, like onion skins, spices like Tumeric, and red cabbage to dye Easter Eggs. We will experiment with many processes, as well as silk fabric dyeing. Using silk, such as old neckties, can transfer the pattern on the silk directly to the surface of the Easter Egg. It is a magical process. Come make beautiful eggs for Easter and springtime.

What to Bring

You can bring silk fabric, which you don't mind parting with, as the silk will be ruined after the dyeing process. Bring things like old 100% pure silk neckties with interesting designs.

Minimum age

All ages welcome

What's Provided

We will provide the dyeing materials, silk, and eggs. Everything you will need will be provided.
