Dampen a paper towel with vinegar and lay it out on a flat surface (this may get messy). Add dots of food coloring to the paper towel and it will create a tie dye effect. Place the hard-boiled egg in the middle of the napkin and wrap it up so the paper towel touches every part of the egg. Let sit for 5 minutes.

Rub vinegar onto the eggs using a paper towel. Place an herb trimming on the front of the egg and arrange it in the position you want to imprint on the egg. Set the egg down with the herb on top. Tie one end of a nylon stocking closed and pull the stocking over the egg. Loosely tie the two ends of the tube together. Soak the egg for 5 minutes, and allow 5 minutes to dry.

Glitter:

Dye your eggs as usual. Choose a design you want and apply glue. Place a sheet of paper under the egg to catch the excess glitter, and sprinkle glitter all over the glue. Allow time for the egg to dry, and continue designing on the other side.

Dye your eggs a lighter color. Press a finger into a stamp pad and press onto the egg. This is a great technique for little ones as they can let their imagination run wild! Create flower petals, polka dots, creatures, or anything else you'd like! Add details with a fine-tipped permanent marker after fingerprints are dry.
