I love their posts because they are practical, and showcase things I could actually make.
Recently, Sara did a tutorial on how to make Silk Dyed Easter Eggs.
We have a tradition of dying Easter Eggs every year, and I thought I had tried them all. But this was a new technique for me.
Sara collects old silk ties and uses them for the base of the dye.
How cool is that?
With my new found interest in hunting thrift shops, guess who is going to have silk ties on the list?

That is amazing! Never heard of dying an egg like that before. So many creative people in this world, isn't there?!
I never heard of a technique like that, and I really loved it!

I love it! I hope that you won't be cussing me someday when you have a houseful of treasures from the thrift stores and no room for anything else.
I did run into my buddy that does the antiques for a living. He is looking for some more sewing baskets like I got.... the one I posted just recently. Let me know if you would like one!
Love the eggs. Thanks for sharing! I have bookmarked them!
That is such a neat technique. Something I have never seen before. It just amazes me the creativity of people.
Wow that is something I never heard of before. I look forward to seeing you dye eggs every year since i stopped doing it several years ago. Now with Allison around I'll have to start up in a few years.
Very pretty egg. Those will make a beautiful basket of Easter eggs.
