Orthodox Easter is this Sunday, so we dye eggs today! The traditional way and the modern way!



In Greece they dye them red, to symbolize the stones they were thrown to Jesus and they were painted red by his blood.
No egg hunts here mom, but they have another very funny custom involving the eggs that you will see on Sunday!

So here is a way to dye red eggs the traditional way! You will love it if you are into organic and biological foods!

You boil water with skins from dry onions.



and there you have it! Red dye!


And here is how we made designs on the eggs! By placing flowers and leaves on the eggs, hold them in place with net fabric and tie the fabric with thread.













so here is the result! not bad for a totally natural way don't you think?!



Well we also used red dye from the market for others...
