How to decorate Easter eggs
Many owners of the needlewoman are wondering,how to decorate Easter eggs with your own hands at home. Probably everyone knows this tradition - to paint eggs for Easter, but if you do not already know, then this information is for you: The egg is a symbol of fertility and rebirth, and the Easter egg means "the coffin of the Lord", for Christians it is a reminder of salvation and eternal life for the faithful to God. Painted eggs for a long time, even before the advent of Christianity, but the first Christians painted eggs in red, in reminder of the blood of Christ, crucified on the cross. Nowadays, many paint eggs with colorful colors, decorate with stickers and other beautiful things. I want to show you an example of a very simple and beautiful painting of eggs that you can make yourself at home using food coloring, unnecessary kapron tights, flowers and leaves. Prepare suitable leaflets: Cut the pantyhose into pieces, two to three times the size of one egg. If you want to use naturaldyes, then you can cook in different saucepans - scales onions, cranberries, beets. Cooking vegetables, berries need about 40 minutes. Then the water must be cooled, and then you can boil eggs in it. But before we put them into the water, we need to attach the leaves to them. This is very simple: using pantyhose we attach the leaf or flower to the egg, press it tightly, tie the tip or fix it. Then cook the eggs in colored water (up to 30 min.). We give them to stand in the same water up to 2 hours. These eggs will come out when we put them out of colored water: Then you need to carefully peel flowers and leaves from eggs. Here such beauty at us will turn out: To make two-colored Easter eggs, cook first in one water (with a leaf), then without a leaf in another water.
