Decorating Eggs

Here are some fun egg coloring ideas from my paper files.
Note that some of these should not be used on eggs that will be eaten, so try blowing the egg out first or using plastic or wooden eggs to create these looks, and that way they will last for many years.
 
 
From Woman's Day magazine April 2008

 The following ideas are from Family Fun, (any pages that I can see dates on say 2005).
  I searched their site a couple days ago for Easter Eggs and came up with 338 results  and that number keeps growing, so there might be more today.  I didn't look through all of their results, but what I did see were pretty cute.
