Linette,
There is an awesome tutorial at Northview Diary about dyeing eggs with onion skins and herbs. They turn out soooo cool!

What the flip!? I just did a post on making homemade juice dyes too. Darn it, if I had known this was here, I’d have linked to it. That’s what I get for being a blog visiting slacker.

Maybe I still will link you, since you have videos - I don’t have videos :( and mine was not about eggs.
