There's nothing prettier than brightly colored Easter eggs nestled in a basket. When you want to add even more excitement to your eggs, consider decorating with rubber bands.

  • Wrap the egg with rubber bands before putting it into the dye.
  • Remove the egg from the dye when it's ready and let the dye dry.
  • Remove the rubber bands and voila! You now have a fancy Easter egg.
  • To dye your egg multiple shades, take off some of the bands before placing the egg into a cup with a different color.
