Easter eggs

On a beautiful sunny day as it was today, me and children went
on a walk by the river. I picked up some greenies for special work
I was planing to do later. What it was? Here are results:

























If you wonder how I did that?

It is very simple:

























Pick up some greenies and little flowers and wrap it on eggs
with old nylon socks.

























Prepare a pot and put in some cold water and dry onion peels.

























Put  the eggs in and add a tablespoon of salt and
two tablespoons of vinegar.
Boil them for 15 - 20 minutes, till they get nice brown-red color.

I love to make Easter eggs that way.
It is simple, ecological and of course
I love that terracotta color so much !

Happy Easter to everyone!
