Decorating Easter eggs

When I was little, my grandmother every year before Easter, he sent to them collect hemlock, clover and other "herbs" because not paint the eggs with "chemicals" as she said, but to peel onions. Collect shells few months before, because it takes about a bag of shells to exit quite intense color.

Tell all my grandmother that eggs must paint on Good Friday, when Jesus was crucified, and if they are then painted, will not break even keep them a year.

If you do not peel onions close, go to the supermarket and the next three, four onions, gathered shells that are among them. They throw anyway. It is preferable to peel onions and some red color because more of them out.

You therefore need:

• a bag of onion skin
• eggs - as you like
• leaves the field, or even the back of the block 🙂
• some stockings that you no longer need
  some thread
• a larger pot, but not the best pot because it might remain slightly colored
• little fat to give gloss finish

Eggs are washed and dried. Then, choose a leaflet that is fixed to the egg by means of the thumb, then the egg sticks sock. Glides sock, pulling on it from the opposite face of leaflets, and when stocking was lying quite hard enough to keep leaflet glued eggs, carefully remove your finger that was fixed leaf. Tighten the sock around the egg and the egg turns up the stocking which covers it stretched to the maximum, after which, where the stocking has been turned around the link with a thread of the egg.

Onion skin wash and boil, but not too much water, only to be covered as well.

So he began to boil water, prepare eggs. Do not boil advance, because the water is allowed to boil with onion skin 15 minutes.

After 15 minutes, removed and allowed to cool. Then the stocking is cut, remove the egg, the egg is removed in the leaflet has retained its original color, and are lubricated with grease or fat eggs, after which the basket is placed in or on a plate n. I went out with my daughter, I picked grass, I put in the basket, then put eggs.

I advise you to try, because it's not as complicated as it seems, and besides that are so beautiful, you know you are healthy and you can eat with confidence.

Joy comes from small things. Peace comes from the heart. Light comes from the heart of each. Happy Easter!
