Oil and Food Coloring Marbled Eggs
- Eggs (hard boiled)
- Food coloring
- Vinegar
- Cooking oil
- Containers for the dye mixture (mugs will work)
- Paper towels
- A few spoons
- In each container combine one tablespoon of each of the following: oil, vinegar, and your choice of food coloring.
- Add enough water to make the liquid deep enough to cover an egg.
- Swirl the liquid with a spoon, and quickly lower and raise an egg into it.
- Pat dry with a paper towel, and repeat with a second color.
- Swirl into a third color, if desired. Some white areas can be left on the egg.
- Gently pat dry the completed egg, leaving a bit of the oil to give the egg a varnished look.
