Coloring eggs with onion peels has been a tradition in our home for generations. I continue the same tradition with my children every year. I choose the darkest onion peels, place them in a pot of water along with them eggs and cook them for about 10-15 minutes. The darker the peel, the darker the egg. They come out beautifully. Once cooled, the kids can place stickers on them or color them with markers. Color comes out amazing and the great thing is the color will not rub off. Once the eggs are cooled I recommend rubbing them with a little olive oil, it will make them become glossy.

I've found that natural dyes last as long as any other method. The hues are beautiful.

Making dye from natural ingredients is very intersing.I would like to have seen how the colors turned out after the eggs sat for an hour or two.
