How to paint and decorate eggs for Easter - proven ways. Jelly Easter Eggs

A universal selection of gift ideas for every occasion and occasion. Surprise your friends and loved ones! ;)

How to dry eggs?

Before starting master classes, you need to decide where and how you will store the unfinished results of creativity? After all, it is very easy to lubricate the drawing, if you just put the testicle on a flat surface. There are several options:

Use egg storage containers. In them, the pattern is less smeared.
Take foam rubber and toothpicks. Insert the toothpicks into the foam at a distance that allows you to place your creation inside.
Purchase special stands. You can also build them yourself. For example, make a cardboard ring in which you will put the egg after coloring.

I myself am still just getting ready for the total Easter coloring. While I tried a couple of ways, I will share my research further.

natural ways

In the meantime, keep a very valuable tablet that shows most of the easiest options for decorating eggs with the most natural dyes at home. All of them need vinegar - add one tablespoon to a saucepan of water.

Presented here:

Coffee. You can also use tea, as it is much more affordable and you don’t have to grind anything. It turns out a beautiful brown shade.
Beet. My favorite color is pink or crimson, it all depends on the soaking time. It is recommended to soak for 8 hours.
Carrot. Bright festive color will give you carrots, from which you will need to squeeze the juice, and then boil the eggs in the resulting solution.
Spinach. A somewhat unexpected way for our latitudes, isn't it?) You will need spinach if you want to get a delicate green color.
Cabbage. To get the blue color of the eggs, take a couple of heads of red cabbage, finely chop and mix with 500 ml of water. Leave the eggs here for 8 hours, covered with a film on top.
Turmeric. But she will give a sunny yellow. Grind the turmeric beforehand (you should get 2-3 tablespoons) and cook until boiling, then cool and place the eggs there.

All the main nuances are presented on this wonderful hand-drawn instruction, which I have already stocked up in my hamster bins for a long time. A very useful thing during Easter

They completely forgot about the onion peel! But she is the most classic dye. There is nowhere more classic. For her, take the onion peel in the desired volume (for the brightest shade, peel from four onions is recommended for one glass of water). Boil the water for about half an hour, and then lower the eggs into it for a few minutes.

Advice: for a beautiful flower-grass pattern, place the eggs in nylon "bags", putting blades of grass, flowers, etc. there. The output will be an interesting drawing.

It is not necessary to make exactly plant-like traces. You can wrap eggs with threads, glue paper patterns.

Food colorings

In general, when buying any food coloring, it should have instructions on it that allow you to correctly turn the coloring procedure. If this does not happen, then:

Add vinegar to water, bring to a boil. Leave for half an hour.
Then the eggs can be boiled in this solution (for a short time) or lowered into the already cooled solution.

However, there are some tricks that will allow you to stand out from the background of others. For example, if you stick round stickers in the form of a polka dot pattern before painting, you will end up with an unusual and very stylish egg.

Or maybe you want a wealth of colors? Then feel free to take gold leaf (it's not that expensive, by the way, if you know the right places;)). First paint, and then wrap the egg with a piece of gold foil and lightly rub with a brush. It turns out an interesting marble effect.

I wonder where you can buy gold leaf cheaply? There you are link on a comprehensive Aliexpress (the seller is verified and one of the most advantageous offers). Here you can buy a lot of precious leaves for a small amount).

Advice. If you want to achieve a beautiful marble effect, then you can do this: paint the egg in a light color, and then dip it in water with a dark color, in which there will be vegetable oil (small drops, about two teaspoons per 500 milliliters).

minions

A favorite of kids and adults alike, they are super easy to make with yellow and blue dye, plus lots of small toy eyes and a felt tip pen. To do this, the egg needs to be dipped in the dye only halfway, dried. On the yellow part, glue the eyes and draw funny faces. The child is happy

Drawing with a permanent marker

One of the fastest ideas. All you need is a permanent marker (one or more) and your imagination. Dots, lines, numbers, mysterious patterns - you will get minimalistic, but very stylish eggs. True, it seems to me that it is not worth leaving such for a long time so that they can be eaten. Still a marker...

Metallic markers are also on sale now - a perfect accessory for Easter. The drawing is more delicate than when using ordinary colors.

Simplicity and cuteness

Have you ever seen white chicken eggs remind you of funny Hello Kitty? Try to make one like in the photo. Little girls will be especially delighted - they will like the cute design. For extra decoration, use small flowers, bows, buttons, and whatever you have on hand.

We use paints

How without them? You can use watercolors or acrylics. In the second case, you can not be afraid of moisture getting on the surface - this is not scary for acrylic dyes. They do not have a strong smell, they do not penetrate deep into.

Feeling reluctant to mess around with lengthy painting? Then take a pimply film and paint over it properly. It remains only to roll the egg on the surface of the film and you will get a speckled egg

We turn to less traditional methods of coloring.

With the help of fabric

For me, these methods have become a kind of discovery. For example, an option appeared where to put old ties. For this, however, they must be made of real silk.

The method is as follows: take a tie, wrap it tightly with a cloth and over it with threads (you can use cotton cloth). Take a little more vinegar than before (about three tablespoons). Boil the eggs for 10 minutes after boiling, cool and very carefully separate the tissue. Incredible beauty comes out

Here is an option with a silk handkerchief and fabric. In general, do not throw away silk shreds - they can come in handy in the most unexpected situations.

On the topic of fabric and onion decoration: take lace and wrap the eggs tightly with it. The recipe is the same, but the patterns are amazing!

Thread decor

You can wrap your creations with threads not only to form beautiful patterns, but also use them as a full-fledged decorative element. To do this, take PVA and coat the surface as the thread advances, which is laid out in a spiral.

Groats in a move

Why does an egg need to be dyed? After all, you can just glue it with grains! Take anything - rice, peas, buckwheat, sesame and more. You can completely roll the product in one type of grain, or you can pour it in stripes, as in the photo.

confectionery topping

Again, it is necessary to properly coat the surface with glue (you can take PVA) and pour sprinkles on top of it. Balls, stars, and just long strips of sweet material will come in handy.

dragon eggs

Yes, not the most Easter idea, but it also has a place to be. For them, you will need round sequins and glue. You can go the other way - take an artificial foam egg and a lot of buttons. It remains only to stick them in circles to get the effect of scales.

I recommend using options with rhinestones, “scales” and other things either for an empty shell or for artificial fake eggs, since it will be a pity to scrape off all these decorations later.

Advice. How to blow an egg out of the shell? There are two ways:
Pierce the egg on both sides with an awl. Take a saucer and just blow out the contents of the egg. Blow carefully so as not to damage the shell.
Pierce the egg on one side. Take the syringe and use it to extract the contents.

Pieces of glass and rhinestones

To decorate eggs, both artificial and natural, square pieces of glass or rhinestones will help you. Looks very impressive and festive

Compromise option

A great idea for those who do not want to mess around for a long time, but still want to decorate. And not artificial eggs, but the most natural ones. For each instance, you will need several small rhinestones, which you can glue in any order. PVA is useful for gluing.

quilling

It seems to me that this method is also suitable for an ordinary Easter egg, it will only be a pity to spoil it. Or you can take an artificial form, as in a master class.

And now, perhaps, the most exotic way of all - coloring ... with nail polish.

Paint eggshells with nail polish

My friends, just the shell without content, if you don't want to get poisoned. I decided to experiment on eggs with contents and realized that even after a short laying they are saturated with the smell of varnish so that only the yolk remains edible at best.

However, if you just want to get a beautiful shell or surface, then take note. Incredibly easy way.

Prepare nail polish (preferably several colors), a container of water (not used for cooking), and the shell itself. Pour the varnish over the surface of the water, drawing the patterns that you want to see later. Take only fresh, undiluted varnishes that have not expired, otherwise you will get not a thin beautiful layer, but thick lines and cakes.

The coverage area should be approximately equal to the surface area of the egg, to again get a beautiful effect.

Gently lower the egg into the pan, submerging it completely in the water. It will immediately be covered with an interesting pattern.

This is what I “painted” for the second egg. First dripped with pink varnish, and then green. As a result, green "dispersed" pink.

I took the eggs not white, but brown, so the result was not very bright.

At the same time, I painted a plastic jar of honey. I didn’t take into account some features, so in some places there were lacquer cakes: _D In general, this method of coloring is suitable not only for the shell - here you can use small decorative jars and dip your nails (although then you have to rub your fingers, but the result is worth it :) )

But what others get by diluting more varnishes and using the white color of the egg as a basis. As soon as people do not fantasize!

other methods

Suddenly I remembered that I had not told about all the options known to me. What else can be used to color eggs for Easter:

Zelenka. It is better to use it like this: wrap the eggs with gauze, in which you put rice, leaves, pieces of paper, and so on. Tie tightly. Now place them in a pot of cold water and cook until boiling, then a few more minutes.
paper decorations. These are all kinds of hare ears, eyes, man-made coasters. The decoration options here are almost endless.
sequins. Coat the surface with PVA glue or paste, and then generously sprinkle it with sparkles, shaking off excess.
thermal stickers. Before Easter, they are sold in almost all stores. All that is needed is to put a sticker on the already boiled egg and quickly lower it into boiling water. I must say, it doesn’t always turn out well - you have to experiment with stickers from different manufacturers.
Pencils + watercolor. Draw an image on the surface with a pencil. Dilute the watercolor in water (the thicker the better) and lower the product there. Didn't like the effect? Wash off the paint and try again.

Finally, I have prepared for you an interesting video with a very simple decor method, in which it is very easy to get the effect of "cosmic" coloring:

Well, how do you like painting? And I'm sure I forgot something. Maybe you can tell in the comments? I would be very grateful, as well as other readers who have looked at the blog. In the future, I will definitely share my painting results with you, do not miss

Sincerely, Anastasia Skoreva

Since ancient times, people have exchanged eggs and Easter cakes for the Easter holiday. The tradition has evolved over the years, resulting in many ways to color and decorate paraphernalia. With the words "Christ is risen!" men and women, children and older generations exchange eggs, later looking at intricate patterns. Among other things, coloring eggs is a rather exciting process that can rally households. There are basic methods, we will consider them in more detail.

How to prepare eggs for painting

As mentioned earlier, experienced housewives, through trial and error, identified the main options for coloring eggs for Easter. However, regardless of the method chosen, they must first be prepared.

Remove the eggs from the refrigerator a few hours before the intended coloring and leave at room temperature. Such a move will help to avoid temperature differences, due to which the shell cracks. An alternative is to pierce the shell with a thin sewing needle, which will prevent the eggs from bursting.
If food pigments or onion peels are used as the main staining method, it is recommended to pre-wash the shell. To do this, use a kitchen sponge and baking soda. The end result is paint that will lie flat without streaks or spotty inclusions.
Before starting the procedure, degrease the shell by wiping it with vodka or medical alcohol. If neither is available, treat the surface with soapy water, then rinse thoroughly and dry.
To give the shell a gloss after painting, wipe the surface of the eggs with vegetable or corn oil. Do not use cotton pads for this purpose, gently soak your fingers in the composition, then spread over the shell.

When you have prepared the "material", start painting. Choose the best option for yourself, and then clearly follow the instructions.

Method number 1. Food colorings

Food coloring is considered to be the most common type of Easter egg coloring. You can purchase ready-made colors or bring your own shades. Pigments can be pearly, glossy or matte, it all depends on the manufacturer.

To properly prepare the composition, take care of such a number of containers in advance that each color has a separate bowl. Dilute the paint with water at room temperature, there should be a lot of liquid so that the eggs completely drown in it.

After diluting the paint, pour in 30 ml. table vinegar solution, then send boiled or raw eggs to the bowl. The exposure time varies, it all depends on how intense the shade you want to get.

Stencil

Purchase tracing paper - ultra-thin paper - online or at a stationery store. Cut out any image from it in the form of a stencil (the inner part is extracted). Anything is suitable as a drawing: favorite cartoon characters, Easter theme, Jesus Christ, etc.
A picture for a stencil can be downloaded from the Internet. The final result depends on the quality of the original image and the material itself. When you have made a stencil base, namely printed and cut it out, soak the paper in water at room temperature. The material should become elastic, repeating the shape of the egg.
Attach the stencil to the shell, smooth out the creases. If your drawing is small, duplicate it in several places. Fix the stencil with gauze or a piece of nylon stockings (tights).
Dilute food or natural dye, send eggs into it and cook them until cooked. At the end of the procedure, remove the eggs, put them on toothpicks or newspaper, cool to room temperature. As soon as this happens, remove the gauze and stencil, enjoy the result.

Vegetable oil

A beautiful result is achieved by coloring eggs with the addition of vegetable oil. To perform the procedure correctly, prepare two containers with the same shade. Pour oil into the first, and leave the second unchanged.
Boil hard-boiled eggs, cool to a temperature of 30 degrees (the coloring composition should have the same indicator). Dip the "material" into a bowl of paint, wait for the required interval (the exact time is indicated in the instructions).
After that, remove the eggs, leave the paint to dry. When this happens, send the product to the second container with vegetable oil, again wait for the time. Dry the eggs, evaluate the result.

Insulating tape

Cut the tape lengthwise to make thin strips (you can skip this step if you like). Prepare several containers of diluted paint, preferably blue and yellow.
Glue the strip in the form of a spiral or any other pattern of your choice. Dip the eggs in a bowl with blue, wait a while, remove and wait for drying. Remove the tape.
Now glue the next strips, which will slightly cover the previously obtained pattern. Dip the egg in yellow paint, wait an interval, remove and dry.
You will end up with a yellow egg with blue and green stripes. The option is good in that it allows you to experiment with obtaining new shades by applying one color to another.

Stationery rubber bands

Purchase rubber bands at the stationery store, which are usually used to tighten banknotes (silicone base). Hard boil eggs, cool, prepare paint of one or more shades.
Then you can proceed in two ways. The first involves coloring the egg in any color with prominent white lines (gum bands are attached to a previously unpainted egg). The second option is two-phase coloring, as a result of which the lines are obtained in the color in which the egg was originally painted.
Consider the second option, it is more complex. Dye the egg yellow, dry it. Wrap stationery rubber bands in a chaotic manner crosswise. Dip the "material" into the green paint, wait for the pigment to set. Dry, remove gum. You will see that the egg has turned blue with yellow stripes.

plant leaves
The technique is similar to the stencil technique with only one clarification - plant leaves are used as a pattern, most often parsley and dill act in their role.

To get an accurate result, tear off a few leaves, attach them to the shell, fix with gauze or a nylon stocking. Dip in the paint, wait a while.
After the expiration date, remove the eggs, cool and dry them. Unfold the fixing material, remove the leaves, grease the surface with vegetable oil and enjoy the result.
The same electrical tape, self-adhesive paper or adhesive tape can serve as an alternative to leaves. Cut out the pattern you need from the material, attach it to the defatted shell of a pre-cooked egg. Place the product in the pigment bowl, then remove and dry.

Method number 2. natural dyes

Onion peel, beets, turmeric, carrots, birch leaves, calendula, orange or lemon, spinach, red cabbage, nettle, coffee can act as natural dyes.
The main feature of "folk" staining is considered to be that the composition acts slowly. As a rule, it takes about 8-10 hours to get the result.
To prepare the solution, pour water into a saucepan and add a large amount of the chosen dye. Pour in 35 ml. table vinegar, stir. Bring the solution until the first bubbles appear, then reduce the power and boil for another 15 minutes.
When the paint is ready, insist it for about half an hour, then send the eggs into the container and simmer them over low heat for 25 minutes. Then turn off the burner, leave the product in the solution overnight.

Turmeric
To give eggs a seductive golden hue, use ground turmeric.

Boil water in an enamel pan, pour 90 gr. turmeric, bring to a boil. Place raw eggs in a container, boil them until tender, then let them brew for another 8 hours without removing them.
It is recommended to carry out the procedure with extreme caution, since it is quite difficult to remove turmeric from the surface of furniture and clothes, however, like other natural dyes.

red cabbage
A decoction based on cabbage will give the eggs a rich blue tint.

Grind a whole head of cabbage into small slices, place in a saucepan and pour boiling water over it. Add 180 ml. table vinegar solution, cover and leave for 10 hours.
After the expiration date, send the eggs to the container, control the color intensity every 2 hours. Then remove the product and leave it to dry. If desired, paint the surface with gouache or felt-tip pens.

Beet
Beetroot will help color the eggs in a raspberry or pinkish hue, it all depends on the length of time the product is kept in the solution.

Grate 4 medium-sized beets, then mash the mixture with a potato masher or chop in a blender.
Pour boiling water over the prepared mixture so that the water covers the beets completely. Pour in 150 ml. vinegar with a concentration of 9%, wait 6 hours.
Put boiled eggs in a saucepan, let it brew for 5 hours. After the time has elapsed, remove the product, leave to dry.

onion peel
Onion peel will color the eggs a red-brown hue with a bronze sheen.

To prepare a coloring solution, you will need to take a husk from 4 kg. Luke. Raw materials must be sent to a large saucepan and pour boiling water.
Put the container on the stove, bring the mass to a boil and simmer for 1 hour. After that, cover with a lid, leave to infuse for 24 hours.
After the due date, pass the broth through a colander or cheesecloth, boil the eggs in it for about 10 minutes. Then do not remove the product from the pan, leave the liquid to cool completely.

Regardless of the chosen method of coloring, you can create patterns on Easter eggs using improvised materials.

Boil round or long grain rice, soak an egg in water and roll it in the rice to make the grains stick. Tie with a stocking or gauze, fix on both sides with elastic bands.
Prepare the coloring pigment, dip the eggs into it and wait the required period of time. For this method, natural dyes are better.
When the eggs are colored, remove them and leave to dry completely. Remove the cloth, remove the rice, brush the surface of the shell with sunflower oil.

Silk fabric
Eggs can be dyed with fabrics; silk or cotton with existing patterns is ideal for this purpose.

Moisten the egg in hot water, wrap it with a piece of cloth so that the design fits snugly on the surface of the shell with the front side. Sew the egg with threads around the entire perimeter so that the fabric does not slip.
Wrap with a piece of nylon, tie on both sides, creating a kind of candy. Pour 100 ml into an enamel saucepan. vinegar (6%), add water, send to the eggs. Boil them for about 15 minutes, then turn off the stove.
Let the eggs stand in the solution for another quarter of an hour, then place them in a bowl of cold water and leave to cool completely. Carefully remove the retainer and stocking, evaluate the fruits of your labors.

First, prepare the eggs for painting: remove them from the refrigerator, leave them at room temperature, pierce a thin hole in the shell with a sewing needle. Consider coloring with food or natural dyes. Use a stencil, parsley leaves, silk fabric, or scrap materials to create a unique design.

Video: how to paint eggs for Easter (different ways)

I offer you several ways to paint Easter eggs.

Easter eggs are a significant attribute of Easter, along with and. We have already prepared all this and even one.

Today we will consider and prepare painted Easter eggs for the celebration.

They paint eggs probably in a hundred, or even more ways.

We will consider some of the most interesting and simple ones.

How to paint eggs for Easter. Coloring Easter eggs step by step with a photo

First, the eggs must be prepared. This is very important in order for the eggs to be beautiful.

1. We need onion peel, preferably from red and yellow onions. Eggs with already defatted shells. If you have not degreased them yet, then wipe them with alcohol or vinegar. Squares of gauze about 20 x 20 cm in size. Threads to tie gauze, pan. Question about the saucepan. After boiling onion skins, the pan is very difficult to clean, so pick up a pot that is not needed or in which you paint every year. Or will you paint.

2. For decoration, we will add various leaves and figures cut out of parchment so that the eggs are not so boring.

3. The husk must be placed in a saucepan and mashed to crush. The size of the pan and the amount of husk depends on how many eggs you want to color. Fill the husk with water and put on the stove to cook for 1-1.5 hours.

4. We begin to prepare the eggs. We take gauze, put a leaf on it, face up, carefully straighten all the tips of the leaf. Lay the egg on the leaf. Carefully collect all the ends of the gauze in a pile and tighten, strongly pressing the leaf to the egg. We twist the collected ends of the gauze into a tourniquet, than we pull the leaf closer to the egg and tie it with threads.

5. We also make the following eggs. You can even lay out some composition of leaves on gauze. Put the egg in the center and tighten the gauze again. But figures made of parchment paper, it is best to dip in water so that they stick to the egg, and then put the egg in cheesecloth and also gently tighten.

6. Add salt to the boiling onion peel and put the eggs there.

7. We close them all completely with husks and let them cook for 10-12 minutes over low heat. Remember that the eggs must be at room temperature, otherwise they will burst.

8. We take out the eggs from the husk and transfer them immediately to cold water so that they are easier to clean later.

We cut off the gauze, rinse with water and see what beauty we have.

To make the eggs shiny, grease them with vegetable oil. The easiest way to do this is by pouring a little oil on cotton pads.

Well, the eggs are ready. They are perhaps not inferior in beauty to eggs painted with paint.

Original DIY Easter eggs

We took:

Eggs - 12 pcs.
Water - 2 liters
Vinegar - 2 or 3 tablespoons
Silk fabric (with different patterns)
Any white fabric
Rubber bands

1. For dyeing eggs, we took unnecessary men's silk ties, of which we have accumulated a lot. If you do not have unnecessary ties, just take pieces of multi-colored silk.

2. We cut the fabric into squares. We take an egg, put it on the front side of the silk fabric.

3. Wrap tightly so that the fabric does not move over the egg. We twist the tail of the fabric that has turned out at the top, thus tightening the egg even tighter.

4. On top of the colored fabric, we impose the same piece of white fabric. We also twist the tail. We fix everything by putting an elastic band on the tail, twisting it several times. Do the same with all eggs.

5. When all the eggs are prepared, put them in a saucepan.

6. Fill with water, add vinegar and put on fire. After the water boils, cook for another 15 minutes. Reduce the fire so that they do not jump in the pan. Just to boil slowly.

7. After 15 minutes, take out the eggs and put them on a dish. Leave on a plate until completely cooled.

8. When the eggs are completely cool, remove the elastic bands and unfold the fabric. See what beauty emerges from under the fabric. Thus, we unfold all the eggs.

These are the most beautiful eggs we got. Surprise your friends. Enjoy yourself.

Very beautiful Easter eggs

1. We take hard-boiled eggs, ordinary colored napkins and egg white. We tear the napkin into 4 parts. We separate the top color layer from the napkins.

2. Dip the egg in protein and twirl to moisten the entire area of the egg. We lay the egg on the wrong side of the napkin and wrap it. Cut off excess napkins.

3. Dip the brush into the protein and grease the egg on top, thus distributing the napkin evenly over the entire egg, while pressing the napkin more tightly against the shell.

4. Everything is neatly distributed, the egg is ready. We do all the eggs the same way. You can take different napkins. Accordingly, the eggs will be different.

How to boil eggs so that they do not burst and are well cleaned?

Here are a few rules on how to properly boil eggs so that they do not crack. After all, it will be very disappointing if, during the creative process, the eggshell cracks and ruins all the efforts.

It is also important that the eggs are fresh enough, you need to be sure that there is complete order inside, and you will not be in for an unpleasant surprise.

How to determine the freshness of eggs?

If you put a raw egg in a bowl of water:

fresh will sink to the bottom
a week old will float vertically in water
not fresh, older than three weeks the egg will float to the surface

It is best to boil eggs not the freshest, but those that were laid a couple of days ago. In very fresh eggs, the shell is more likely to fail and crack during cooking. Yes, they clean worse.

Egg shells burst from temperature changes, so do not put them cold, straight from the refrigerator, into hot water. It is best to bring the egg to room temperature and then place it in a saucepan with cold water, only then light the fire.
Use some salt when boiling them. Our grandmothers used this method. Salt the water before you start to boil the egg. You will need about 1 teaspoon of salt per liter of water.
If cooked too long, the yolks of the eggs become covered with a gray-green coating, and the whites become rubbery. In order to paint, we need hard-boiled eggs, this is about 7-8 minutes. Below in the figure there is a visual illustration of eggs cooked for different times.

Happy Holidays!

At what time they began to paint, no one really knows. But we believe that they have been doing this for a very, very long time. Therefore, every year in the spring we do not just tint them in different colors, but try to make them a unique masterpiece.

Everyone is preparing very seriously for the great holiday of Bright Easter. They make various delicious dishes, bake Easter cakes. But the main thing on the table, of course, are the eggs. Their coloring is not so difficult. It's just a fun thing. Especially for children. They are waiting for the day when you can do whatever you want with them.

I confess honestly that one year I could not paint them. But I decided that the children would do it for me. I boiled white eggs, cooled them and gave them. He also gave them felt-tip pens and allowed them to show their imagination. Oh, it was something. Their joy simply knew no bounds. In general, as they say, I killed two birds with one stone! That is, he painted them and occupied the children with a good deed.

This article will focus on coloring eggs, decorating them and serving them on the table. There will be simple and easy ways, as well as something more difficult. The result is always beautiful.

Easter in 2019 falls on April 28th. The main custom on this day is to illuminate and give each other colored testicles. But where did this tradition come from?

In Christianity, the red Easter egg symbolizes the tomb and resurrection, and the red color is the blood of the crucified Christ. Since his tomb was in a cave, and a stone, similar in shape to him, closed the entrance. And in it, under the shell, a new life is hidden. Therefore, the Easter egg for Christians is a reminder of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, salvation and eternal life. There are several versions of the origin of the tradition of painting them for Easter.

There is a legend about Mary Magdalene. She is revered as an Equal-to-the-Apostles saint and myrrh-bearer who preached the resurrection of Christ in Rome. According to him, she appeared to the emperor Tiberius with the news of Christ. To appear before him, it was necessary to present a gift. But since Mary was poor, she gave as a gift an egg painted red with the words "Christ is Risen!".

There is also a version that it was ordinary, not painted. And the emperor expressed doubts about the news of the resurrection. He said that just as the dead do not rise, so it cannot turn from white to red. And then, in front of everyone, the egg began to turn red.

There is also an assumption that staining is associated with the birth of the Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius. One of his mother's hens laid them down that day with red dots. This event was interpreted as a happy omen. And since then, the Romans began to send each other painted Easter eggs as a congratulation.

The Romans also had a custom of eating a baked egg before a meal. This meant the successful start of a new business. After all, it is like the sun: it revives and revives everything. Also in Rome, they were used painted in rituals and games.

There is an assumption that the tradition of painting them at Easter is associated with the pre-Christian celebration of spring. Many peoples believed that it was endowed with life-giving power. And the whole universe was seen by them as coming out of an egg. Among the Egyptians, Greeks, Romans and Persians, it symbolized the rebirth and the birth of a new life.

What is the best way to color eggs for Easter?

We all know that Easter eggs are not only a tradition, but also the basis of the table. It is not so difficult to do this, because the stores have a huge selection of colors and various decor for a beautiful design.

Today we have a huge number of decoration options. You just need to turn on your imagination, and there is no limit to this. It is only desirable that the design should have as few dull and dark colors as possible. Since this holiday is bright and spring, it is advisable to use rich bright colors of spring, as well as all shades of red.

Easter eggs can be decorated however you like. It all just depends on the method of staining, in the use of which such definitions are applied as:

1. dyes – staining in any solid color;

2. drapanki - one-color, but with a pattern scratched on them;

3. specks – painted in any color with inclusions in the form of stripes, specks of a different color;

4. Easter eggs – decorated in the form of an ornament or a pattern with a storyline. Eggs are painted by hand with paints or wax.

There are several conditions for preparing eggs, the observance of which will help you color them easily by any means:

1. they must be at room temperature. First, let them lie on the table, and when they get warmer, it will be possible to cook. Then, when lowered into water and in general in the process, the shell will not burst;

2. so that the color lays down evenly and easily when stained, they are washed and degreased. Wash with any detergent under cool running water. Degrease with alcohol-containing liquids;

3. always add salt to the water when boiling eggs: 1 tablespoon is placed in 1 liter of water;

4. already finished and painted were beautiful and attractive, they need to be dried and wiped with a cotton pad dipped in vegetable oil. Then rub with a disk without oil. Then they will beautifully cast with gloss.

We dye eggs with natural dyes:

Most housewives make this with food coloring they buy at the store. Although they are called food, they are still not as useful as they seem. And although we color the shell, not the protein, when cleaning the hands are stained and the dye gets on the edible part. And that means in our body. The same thing happens when we paint cracked ones (do not throw them away and food paint, which means it will not bring harm). All store-bought food colorings have chemicals that quickly turn pysanky bright and beautiful colors, which is not natural. Therefore, it is not useful for a person at all.

But not many people know that there are quite a few natural dyes. They are quite affordable for any person, as there are almost in every kitchen. You probably did not even suspect that some products can color them. Only these dyes cannot quickly paint in a bright and saturated color. Since they are not so active, that is, they do not have chemistry, which means that it will take more time to stain.

Now I will tell you what natural dyes are and how to achieve a brighter color with their help.

1. Carrots: rich yellow.

Chopped or grated on a grater, pour two large carrots with 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil and keep on low heat for 15 minutes. Strain the broth and add 3 teaspoons of vinegar to it.

2. Turmeric: mustard yellow.

Pour two tablespoons of the powder into 1 cup of boiling water. Add 2 teaspoons of vinegar.

3. Green tea: light yellow.

Brew 3 tea bags in one cup of boiling water. Let it brew for five minutes. Pour in 1 teaspoon of vinegar.

4. Orange: yellow tint.

Pour the peel from 5 fruits with 2 cups of water. Keep on low heat for 20 minutes. Strain the broth and splash 1 tablespoon of vinegar into it.

5. Dill: golden brown.

Use seeds. Pour 3 tablespoons of dill with one glass of water. Bring to a boil and keep on low heat for 15 minutes. Strain and add 1 teaspoon of vinegar.

6. Coffee: brown.

Brew 1 cup of very strong coffee and add a little acetic acid, diluted to 9%.

7. Beets: Pale pink to deep pink.

Finely chop or grate large beets. Pour in 4 cups of water. Bring to a boil and simmer over low heat for 10 minutes. Strain the broth and pour in 2 tablespoons of vinegar.

8. Red paprika: reddish orange.

In one glass of boiling water, brew 3 tablespoons of seasoning. Add 1 teaspoon of vinegar.

9. Onion peel: orange.

Remove the skin from six yellow onions. Pour in two glasses of water. Bring to a boil and keep on low heat for 15 minutes. Pour in 3 teaspoons of vinegar.

10. Parsley and Spinach: Pale green.

Grind 100 gr. frozen or fresh herbs in a blender. Pour two glasses of water and simmer for 10 minutes over low heat. Add 1 tablespoon of vinegar to the broth.

11. Blueberry: bluish gray color.

In one glass of water, mash a handful of frozen or fresh berries. Let it brew for 2 hours.

12. Red Cabbage: Blue.

Chop up half of the head. Fill with water and simmer on low heat for 10 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon of vinegar.

There are also many more natural dyes that give their own unique shades. But since these are natural natural dyes, naturally they will not be as bright as purchased ones.

In order for the eggs to acquire a more beautiful and saturated color in natural dye, hold them in the dye for 12 hours. At the same time, place the container in the refrigerator. In the cold, the pigment will intensify.

How to dye eggs in onion skins?

If suddenly you forgot to buy paint, and you no longer want to run to the store, then this method of coloring is for you. After all, everyone in the house has an onion, and the husk is usually thrown away. Only this time it will serve you well.

We will need:

Onion peel;
Water;
Chicken egg;
Salt;
Vegetable oil.

1. For painting, we need as much peel as possible. It is better to collect it in advance, but if this is not possible, use at least 6 pieces. Since its volume affects the color of the eggs.

It doesn’t matter what kind of onion you have (red or regular onion). As a result, the color will be the same.

If you have an old pan that you don't mind painting, then use it. We put the husk in it and fill it with water, which should completely hide the contents. We put on fire and when the water boils, reduce it. The rind should simmer, not boil, for 30 minutes. At the same time, add a tablespoon of salt to it so that the eggs remain intact during cooking.

2. Remove the eggs from the refrigerator in advance, as they should be at room temperature. If they are cold and you start lowering them into the pan, then the Easter eggs will simply burst.

It is from the eggs that the color of the coloring depends. If you use white, then the dyed ones will be light. And browns are painted in a darker tone.

3. After the time has elapsed, we extinguish the fire and leave the broth with the husk to cool slightly to make it easier to lower the eggs into it. Gently put them in a saucepan and lightly “dig in” with a spoon into the husk. Bring them to a boil and cook for 10 minutes. Sometimes don't forget to check them and rotate them a bit.

4. Transfer the finished ones to another pan and fill with cold water. This way they clean up better. Then dry and use a cotton pad or bandage moistened with vegetable oil to wipe them. So they will have a nice shine.

We paint eggs with beets for Easter

I never thought that they could be dyed with more than just onion skins and store-bought paints. But also beets. It would seem that everyone knows about it. But I didn't know! I saw it by accident. Came home and started trying. And here it is a miracle! They acquired not just a red color, but such a ... Better try it yourself.

We will need:

Beet;
Water;
Vinegar 9%;
Chicken egg;
Vegetable oil.

1. Wash the kokushki so that in the future the dirt does not prevent us from painting them evenly. Boil until tender in boiling water for 7-9 minutes. It is better to paint them hot.

2. Beets, if it is large, you will need 2 pcs. Wash it and peel it off. Cut into small cubes and put in a saucepan. Fill with water to cover the beets. Put on fire and cook for 10 minutes. Then we turn it off.

3. We put them in a saucepan to the beets so that they are completely hidden and "buried" in it. Cool and put in the refrigerator overnight. Staining time from 3 to 12 hours. You can adjust the degree of coloration by removing the eggs.

The longer they are in the decoction, the stronger the staining. And the cold will give a more saturated color.

The broth can be filtered from the pulp, then the staining will be uniform. And so they get the effect of marble.

You can also use only beetroot juice, but then take it twice as much. Grate it on a fine grater or chop in a blender and squeeze the juice. Add 2 tablespoons of vinegar to it and place the egg for coloring. Keep it in the juice as long as possible, preferably from three hours.

Easter eggs in this way acquire a matte effect in the final form. Therefore, to give it a gloss, wipe it with a cloth dipped in vegetable oil.

Coloring eggs with turmeric

Preparing for Easter is always fun. Paint them or bake them. There are always many who want to help. Especially when it comes to eggs.

We will need:

Turmeric;
Water;
Eggs.

Pour cold water (0.5 liters) into a small saucepan and put on fire. Pour 3 tablespoons of turmeric, mix. Gently, using a spoon, dip the raw eggs at room temperature into the water.

After boiling, cook them for 15 minutes. Then we turn off the fire. If the color suits you, then they can be dried and greased with vegetable oil for shine. Usually this is not enough for me, so I cool them together with the broth and put them in the refrigerator overnight. Then the color is more saturated.

How to dye eggs blue with red cabbage?

Who would have thought that red cabbage gives exactly a blue tint, and not red. I had never heard of this before, but I didn't even know about it! I am still surprised when I paint.

We will need:

Red cabbage - 1 fork;
Water;
Eggs;
Vinegar 9%.

How to prepare for painting I wrote above. Now boil them until tender for 10 minutes and cool.

Cut the cabbage into large cubes and place in a bowl. Fill it with water so that the pieces are hidden. We put on fire and after boiling, cook for 20 minutes.

Drain the finished broth into a deep cup and add 2 tablespoons of vinegar to the hot one. Immediately put the eggs in the hot liquid and leave to stain for at least 3 hours.

I did this: I left the bulk of the eggs in the refrigerator for 12 hours. And the rest the next day left in the solution for different times (4 and 2 hours). I got them in different colors.

Coloring eggs for Easter with a marble method

As you already understood, they can be painted with anything. But still, I like to use onion skins. With it, you can paint very beautifully without much effort.

We will need:

Onion peel;
Paper;
Eggs;
Gauze or wide bandage;
Threads or elastic bands;
Water.

1. Take onion peel and remember or break it. If this does not help, then use scissors to chop into small pieces. The smaller they are, the more interesting the color will be. And also cut some plain white paper. Mix it together with the husk.

2. Prepare gauze or a wide bandage in advance. Old nylon stockings are also suitable. Make them into pieces so large that you can wrap the eggs in them.

3. Soak prepared raw kokushki at room temperature in water, and then roll in a mixture of onion skins and pieces of paper.

4. Wrap in pieces of gauze and tie the ends well with a thread or elastic band.

Just keep in mind that the gauze should tightly press the pieces of husk and paper. After all, the drawing on the eggs depends on this.

5. Put the remaining husk in a saucepan along with the eggs. Fill with water and add 2 tablespoons of salt. We put on fire. After boiling, reduce the burner and cook for 20 - 25 minutes.

6. Cool under running water and remove the gauze. Dry and lubricate with a cotton pad dipped in vegetable oil.

Color eggs marble

In general, I know many ways to marble color, but I will share the most popular. Greenery is often used here. I want to immediately warn you to take a very old pan. Since then it will be difficult for you to wash it.

We will need:

Eggs;
Onion peel;
Zelenka;
Gauze;
Gloves;
Salt;
Water.

1. Onion peel, no matter what color you have, finely chop or cut.

The onion variety does not affect the color of the stain, as they will still be red. But the intensity of the color depends on its quantity: more is better.

2. Moisten eggs at room temperature with water and dip in the husk. At the same time, you can help with your hands, sprinkling them.

3. Using a thread or elastic band, we tie the ends of the gauze piece or stocking in which the eggs are wrapped.

4. Put the remaining husk in a saucepan. We also transfer Easter eggs there. Fill to the top with water and add a tablespoon of salt. Also pour 1 bottle of greenery.

5. Put on fire and bring to a boil. Then reduce and cook for 15-20 minutes.

6. Thoroughly rinse the finished kokushki under running water. Now remove the gauze, just use gloves so as not to stain your hands.

7. Dry and lubricate with a cotton pad moistened with vegetable oil.

Also marbled color is obtained when you use other natural dyes. For example, if you don’t filter the decoction of beets or red cabbage, but “drop” eggs directly into them. After 12 hours you will get an amazing marble color.

A decoction of blueberries will also help you with this. Only after staining will the top layer of paint begin to peel off. Wash them under running water and the result will surprise you!

How to dye eggs with a lace pattern

I like when they have beautiful pictures on them. But many are afraid of this from ignorance, because they believe that it is laborious. But in fact it is fast, easy and unusual. To make a lace pattern on eggs, you can use different plants, lace, nets and any other materials that are at hand.

We will need:

Eggs;
sprigs of parsley;
Gauze;
Onion peel;
Salt;
Threads.

1. Take twigs of any plants you have. It can be dill, parsley, flowers. You can also use beautiful lace. You can cut out drawings from electrical tape, plaster or paper.

2. Wet them with water and put twigs or a paper pattern. Then we wrap it tightly with gauze and tie the ends with a thread.

3. Put onion skins and eggs in a saucepan. Pour water to the top and pour out a tablespoon of salt so that they do not spill out when cracking.

4. Put the pan on the fire and, bringing it to a boil, reduce it. We cook for 30 minutes.

5. Cool under cold running water. We remove the gauze, dry it. Lubricate with vegetable oil.

Painting eggs with a beautiful pattern - 8 original ways

There are many more original ways to color Easter eggs with drawings. I'm already dizzy with how I'm going to color them this year. I would like to try everything.

To begin with, we need to boil them until cooked for 7 - 9 minutes. And since I'll be using food coloring, I'll need five cups or small jars. I fill them with paint and dilute with water in accordance with the instructions and add a tablespoon of vinegar.

Method 1:

We use threads or stationery rubber bands. We wind them around the egg arbitrarily and lower them into the paint. We wait 3 - 5 minutes and pull it out. Place on a paper towel to drain the paint and let it dry a little. Then carefully remove the threads.

Method 2:

For this we need 3 napkins. We wrap an egg tightly in them and pour different paints from a spoon. Let it sit for 5 minutes to color it. Unfold and brush with vegetable oil.

Method 3:

Let's make a pattern using rice and a nylon sock or gauze. To do this, soak the egg in water and roll in rice. Wrap tightly in cheesecloth and dip in paint. After three minutes, we take it out, remove the gauze and dry it.

Method 4:

Take any candle and light it. With a cotton swab or toothpick, apply wax to the egg in the form of a pattern. It will harden, then put the egg in the paint. We take it out, dry it and wipe off the wax.

Method 5:

Decoupage using drawings from napkins. Below I will describe how to make decoupage entirely from napkins. And here we only need patterns. Separate the color layer and tear off a suitable pattern with our hands. Glue it to the egg with a brush and egg white.

Method 6:

Let's paint it first in one color. Let it dry and stick strips of tape on it. Let's paint again. When stained, carefully remove the adhesive tape.

Method 7:

We need rice again. Pour it into a tall cup and drip a little of any paint. Stir and put the egg in it. shake well. Check if this coloring suits you, then leave it like that. But it is better to drop another paint into the same rice. Mix again and put the same egg, shake until it is colored. Our drawing is speckled.

Method 8:

We color the eggs in the main color. And with the help of a toothbrush, sprinkle them with a different color. Since the drops will fly in different directions, then lay paper towels or newspaper.

How to decoupage eggs for Easter with napkins?

Today this technique is very popular. Therefore, more and more often they began to decorate Easter eggs with it. The result is very beautiful and at the same time it is done quite easily.

We will need:

Eggs boiled;
The egg is raw;
Napkins with a beautiful pattern;
The brush is soft large;
Vegetable oil.

1. Since I will use egg white instead of glue, we need to separate it from the yolk accordingly. We stir it with a brush.

2. Napkins should be with a small pattern. Therefore, when buying, imagine how it will look on the egg. Since napkins usually consist of three layers, and we only need one - the top one, we remove the other two.

3. On pre-boiled Easter eggs, we apply the pattern we need on a napkin, as if trying on. If everything suits us, then we begin to straighten it with a brush. In this case, the napkin gets wet and sticks.

Act carefully and quickly, as the protein dries quickly and then everything can break.

This way you brush the whole egg. Cut off the excess with scissors and glue the rest. With a brush, we smoothed out all the folds and we got a beautiful Easter egg.

4. Leave it to dry. Then lubricate with a brush dipped in vegetable oil to give them a glossy sheen.

You can also use gelatin instead of protein. To do this, soak it in warm water, and when it swells, bring to a boil. So it will completely dissolve and now our glue is ready for use!

Painting eggs with nail polish

We will need:

Eggs;
Cup;
Water;
Nail polish;
Toothpick;
Gloves.

1. We need white eggs. We prepare them, boil until tender for 9 minutes in boiling water and cool. I must say right away that we don’t need testicles cracked during cooking.

2. Pour water at room temperature into a cup (it is advisable to take one that you don’t mind spoiling). We drip a few drops of varnish of one or more colors into it. If you decide to use more than one, then we drip in turn at one point.

3. Using a toothpick, draw a picture in any form.

4. Put on gloves and take the egg. Dip it on one side, then the other side into a cup and dry.

The result is very interesting and beautiful. But it is desirable to use this technique with empty shells. Since you yourself understand that varnish is a strong chemistry and I would not recommend using it for food purposes. Therefore, to decorate eggs for Easter, it is better to use other methods.

How to stick beautiful stickers on Easter eggs?

To date, they just haven’t come up with anything to make our life easier. Even those who came up with these stickers saved us time. After all, here you do not need to stain the dishes with paints and wait for them to be painted.

We will need:

Eggs;
Thermal stickers;
Water.

First you need to check the size of the thermal stickers and eggs. All stickers have a standard diameter. They are great for commercial eggs labeled C1 and C2. But from poultry, problems may arise, since they are large. And, when you have already decided on the size, then get down to business.

1. First, boil them in the usual way and cool under cold running water. Now we put thermal stickers on them. Try to keep them in the middle.

2. Boil water again in a small saucepan or kettle. Using a spoon, carefully lower it into boiling water. The sticker immediately wraps around it tightly. Do the same with the remaining samples.

An egg decorated in this way is unlikely to crack if you drop it. Since the sticker protects it.

This decor has a huge minus: it is very difficult to clean them from the shell. After all, the sticker is firmly attached and it is very difficult to tear it.

How to decorate eggs with foil. Easter egg decoupage

There is another great idea how to decorate it. You can just wrap it in foil. It's that simple and you don't need anything else. But you definitely haven't tried this method.

We will need:

Foil;
PVA glue;
Food colorings;
Vinegar;
Water;
Toothbrush.

1. Boil them and cool in cold water. We dilute food coloring according to the instructions and add a tablespoon to each color. We lower the kokushkas into them and leave them to be painted for 3-5 minutes. We get and dry.

2. Coat the egg with glue, but try to do it in such a way that there are places not touched by glue. We wrap it with foil (it is sold in stores for creativity). We roll in the palms and remove the excess. Let dry a little. Then gently brush it with a toothbrush. Thus, we give it the effect of aging.

Making fluffy eggs for Easter

I peeped this wonderful method from my neighbor. She treated my children last year. They were just delighted with these eggs.

We will need:

Eggs;
Food colorings;
Vinegar;
Egg white;
Gouache;
Boric alcohol or vodka;
Water;
Sieve;
Manka.

1. First, paint the semolina. Pour a tablespoon of water and a tablespoon of alcohol into a cup. Add 0.5 teaspoon gouache. You can use food coloring, only in dry form. Stir and add 4 tablespoons of semolina. Mix everything well and put it on a clean and dry paper to dry. it will dry out in about 1.5 to 2 hours. Then sift it through a sieve, if there are lumps - mash.

2. Boil the eggs until cooked and cool. Dilute food coloring according to the instructions and add 1 tablespoon of vinegar to each color. Dip in paint and paint for 5 minutes. Take out and dry.

3. We coat the Easter eggs with protein using a silicone brush and roll in colored semolina. You can combine colors according to your taste. This is how we make them fluffy.

This is not a difficult way to decorate, because you just need to paint them and scratch out the pattern. Although a clerical knife must be handled carefully, because it is very sharp.

I also wanted to give you some ideas on how to drop your beautiful Easter eggs on the holiday table.

1. The simplest thing is to lay eggs around or Easter cake. By the way, it would be better if the dish is placed on some tall cup. To highlight the Easter decoration of the table, and put a bouquet of flowers next to it.

2. Put all the colored eggs in a glass vase and add some greens or flowers to them.

3. Buy pasta nests and put eggs in them. This decoration can be placed around the table.
