Why, yes, I did dye eggs this year, as I have every year since I can remember, despite the fact that I'm of a certain age and have no children.
And yes, I did attempt to do some of the "Martha Stewart Gallery" eggs (http://www.marthastewart.com/photogallery/easter-eggs#slide_20), with varied successes. As in, not a lot. These are just a few of my fail!eggs. :)
Happy Easter!

Happy (early) Easter!

inclinationpatience. I have some relatives who are nuts about pysanka, and they actually take those things on tours, to strange egg-decorating shows.Your eggs involve just the right amount of obsession for me.

Date: 2011-04-24 06:08 am (UTC)We dyed eggs tonight (just Mom and me) and it was the first time I'd done so in probably nine years. It was fun! We just did solid colors, though.

Date: 2011-04-26 10:54 pm (UTC)I only went a little far, with the vegetation and rubber-bands and whatnot. There was a Martha Stewart Eggs iPhone app, you see...
(In other news, are you watching baseball this spring? The Rockies are tearing 'em up so far, looks like. My Reds boyz are in a bit of a funk right now, but they'll get their mojo back. My honey is pitching tonight even though he was arrested at Macy's last week the little dipshit.)

Date: 2011-04-26 10:56 pm (UTC)The copper-egg is the "everything" egg. Mix all the colors together, insert egg. :)

Beautiful eggs, btw! I was NEVER that artistic!

no subject
Date: 2011-04-26 10:58 pm (UTC)Oh, I don't eat hard-boiled eggs. They gross me out. Weird, right? I love to boil them, and dye them, and make deviled eggs out of them; I just don't eat 'em. (I love my eggs scrambled.)
no subject
Date: 2011-04-26 02:19 pm (UTC)And I have fun doing the egg dye thing too. Although I didn't make time for it this year.
