Easter eggs are not just painted in different colors - the original patterns on the shell are increasingly found on holiday tables. You can make marble eggs - paint like a real stone. Unusual divorces are created in a variety of ways.
We will need the ingredients:
- raw chicken eggs - 8-10 pcs.,
- onion peel (from white and red onions),
- water,
- vinegar 9%,
- salt,
- vegetable oil,
- white paper,
- gauze or wide bandage,
- stockings or tights
- threads
As a dye, ordinary onion peel is used. Take part of the husk from an ordinary onion, and part from a red onion. Red onion husks will give a darker brown tint.
How to color and boil marbled eggs:
- Grind the onion peel with your hands, scissors or a blender. The more heterogeneous the fragments of the husk are, the more intricate the pattern on the shell will turn out.
- Finely chop or tear white offset paper and mix with chopped onion skins.
- Wash raw eggs, wipe with vinegar or alcohol.
- Roll the eggs in the husks and paper, as in breading.
- Now you need to fix the husk and paper on the shell - to do this, wrap each egg with gauze or a wide bandage and tie it with a thread, forming a bag. Instead of gauze, you can use nylon - a stocking or tights.
- Dip the egg bags in cold water and put on fire. Salt the water to keep the eggs from bursting.
- Wait until the water boils and boil the eggs for 10-15 minutes.
- Drain the water and let the eggs cool.
- Carefully remove the gauze and rinse off any remaining onion skins from the eggs.
- Dry the shell with a paper towel and rub with vegetable oil.
Vegetable oil will add a shine to the shell, which will make the eggs even more like natural marble.
Marble eggs with greenery
You can slightly improve the above recipe and cook marbled eggs with brilliant green.
We will need the ingredients:
- onion peel,
- Zelenka pharmacy (brilliant green solution) - 1 small bottle,
- water,
- vegetable oil.
- It is necessary to add a brilliant green solution to the water in which the eggs are boiled. A light green tint will appear already from a few drops of brilliant green, and if you pour the whole vial into the water, you will get a rich emerald color of the shell mixed with brown and yellowish spots from onion peel.
- Keep in mind that brilliant green is difficult to wash - protect your hands with gloves, and take the pot or bowl for cooking the one that you don’t mind.
Marble eggs - staining with dye
To get multi-colored original eggs, buy factory dyes in different shades.
We will need the ingredients:
- raw chicken eggs - 8-10 pcs.,
- onion peel,
- food coloring of different colors - a few sachets,
- water,
- vegetable oil.
- Dilute the dyes each in a separate container, following the instructions on the package.
- Roll the eggs in onion skins and tie with gauze.
- Boil the eggs in salted water for 10 minutes after boiling.
- Then, without removing the gauze, dip the egg into a container with dye and hold for the time indicated on the dye package.
- Remove the gauze, rinse the eggs, dry the shell with a napkin and rub with vegetable oil - for a beautiful shine.
Marble eggs - varnishing
Bright and spectacular Easter eggs are obtained by painting them with nail polishes. Choose a few shades of polish that go well with each other.
- Take a container of water and drop a few drops of varnish of each shade there.
- With an orange stick or toothpick, mix the polishes on the surface of the water, forming abstract stains.
- Gently lower the boiled egg into the water, trying to collect as much varnish film on it as possible (it is convenient to use large tweezers for this).
- Carefully remove the egg from the water and let it dry for a while.
Then you can lay the eggs on a plate or stand. Keep in mind that nail polishes are not food coloring. Many do not risk eating eggs painted in this way, but this method is perfect for creating an Easter decorative still life.
Ingredients:
- chicken eggs (fresh, preferably brown),
- rock or sea salt - 1-2 tsp,
- onion peel
- white paper
- gauze,
- scissors,
- threads.
How to cook with a photo step by step
To begin with, we will do the preparatory work: we will need onion peel (thrifty housewives collect it ahead of time), as well as paper and scissors. Cut the paper and husk into small pieces of different sizes with scissors. 
Next, we wash the chicken eggs with warm soapy water and, with wet hands, dip the wet egg in paper-husk crumbs. 
We wrap it in a piece of gauze (preferably in two layers) and tie it into a knot. This is how we prepare all the eggs. 
Next, dip them in salty cold water and cook for 10 minutes, marking the time from the moment the water boils. 
We take out the eggs from the pan, open the gauze and rinse them in cold water. 
Next, we prepare a solution of brilliant green in a separate bowl (it is better to take a half-liter jar) - pour water and pour in half a bubble of green.
And now the fun part: dip the eggs into this solution with a spoon for a couple of seconds. 
And then immediately rinse in running water and grease with oil to give them shine. It will also look bright on the festive table, which you can also cook yourself. 
Ready! 
On the eve of Holy Easter, believers begin preparing for the festive table: they bake Easter cakes, make curd Easter, and, of course, paint eggs. Since childhood, we have been accustomed to seeing multi-colored eggs on the table - blue, yellow, red, marble, with drawings. Eating them is always tasty and pleasant, even if on other days, there was no particular interest in this product.
And in 2020, Easter holiday falls on April 19 by calendar. We recommend cooking for this great day, and put colored eggs on a saucer next to it. Before eating, believers usually pray, and then they choose the egg itself, and begin to beat it with the household. Whose egg is stronger and does not crack, he won. This is how the day starts and goes. Greetings, do not forget to say - "Christ is Risen." And in response you will hear - "Truly Risen."
And today, our issue is devoted to one big topic - painting eggs. And to your attention 30 ways. And if you missed it, we recommend reading it!
Our ancestors dyed Easter eggs with natural dyes such as onion skins, cherry tree bark or beets. Now there is a huge selection of food colors. But the natural product is no less in demand. There are a lot of methods and options for coloring and decorating eggs. This article was created in order to combine the most interesting and practical ideas in one.
According to an ancient legend, the block, which closed the tomb of Jesus Christ, was similar in shape to an egg. Behind this stone was hidden a Saint whose life is eternal. In the same way, a new life is hidden behind the shell of an egg ....
There are several variations of the tradition of decorating eggs for Easter. According to one of them, the Myrrh-bearing Mary Magdalene, having come to preach to the Roman emperor, brought him an egg. She was an ardent supporter of Christ and carried the story of his Resurrection. At this gift, the emperor chuckled: “Life is as eternal as this egg is red, not white.” After these words, according to legend, the egg turned red right in the hands of the sovereign.
Among the ancient Romans, the egg was considered a symbol of new life and the Sun. For breakfast, men always ate a baked egg so that the day would be blessed with good luck and success.
Another suggestion is the birth of Emperor Aurelius. The story goes that a chicken belonging to his parents, immediately after the birth of the future ruler, laid a rather interesting testicle. Its color was bright, flecked with red. Witnesses interpreted this as a favorable sign of fate. After this incident, the inhabitants of Ancient Rome started a tradition of exchanging colored eggs as gifts.
There is also an opinion that decorating eggs was practiced long before the birth of Jesus Christ. With the advent of Spring, people celebrated the beginning of warm weather and dyed eggs as a symbol of the sun and eternal life. Then it was believed that the whole world, all living things came from an egg. Since Easter comes precisely at the beginning of spring, this tradition is still kept.

Marble way of painting eggs. Option 1
There are two main ways to marble eggs. We have considered them above. However, guided by them, you can also consider a few more options. For example, dyeing with onion peel and rice.
Ingredients:
- Some rice;
- Onion peel;
- Dyes of the desired shade;
- Gauze;
- Scissors;
- Threads.
Pour water over rice. In the meantime, chop the onion peel with your hands or scissors. It also needs to be filled with water. Gauze cut into squares 18 * 18 cm. Roll each egg in the husk and grits and place in a bag of gauze. Fasten the edges with threads. Immerse the eggs in a pot of water and boil for half an hour.
Then prepare the dye solution. You can use dyes that are sold in stores. The instruction, as a rule, is always indicated on the packaging. Place the eggs in the cooled paint for a few minutes. Then take them out and unfold the gauze.
How to dye eggs marbled. Option 2
The second method involves the use of food coloring, vinegar and vegetable oil. Boil the eggs in salted water until the yolk is hard. Only after cooking you need to start painting. Dilute the dye in a bowl of water according to package directions. The dishes must be chosen wide so that the egg can be freely placed and moved in it.
Drop a few drops of vegetable oil into a dish with a coloring solution so that oil bubbles form on the surface. It is they who determine the presence of a marble pattern. Place the egg in a container and twist in such a way that it “collects” beautiful patterns from oil drops. Now you need to wipe it with a napkin and the beauty is ready!
Decoupage with napkins
Decoupage is a great way to decorate various things and gifts without spending a lot of time on it. To decoupage Easter eggs with napkins, you only need boiled eggs, beautiful paper napkins, scissors, a brush and a paste.
From napkins, cut out the patterns drawn on it along the contour. You can also cut out a piece around it, this is called the patchwork method. Now prepare the paste. To do this, dilute 2 tbsp. water in 50 milliliters of water. Then heat the solution in the microwave for about 15 seconds, periodically opening the oven and stirring the paste.
Put pieces of napkins on the eggs and coat with paste on top. Leave them on a flat surface for half an hour to dry the glue.
How to paint eggs with nail polish
For this you will need:
- Several bottles of nail polish in different colors;
- A bowl of water;
- Toothpicks;
- Nail polish remover;
- And, of course, eggs.
Boil the eggs in boiling salted water. In a separate bowl with water, drop nail polish of several colors at once. With a toothpick or other thin object, connect all the colors, making stains on them.
Immerse the egg in water with varnish and turn it so that the paint captures the entire surface of the shell.
Lay the painted eggs on a flat surface and wait for the varnish to dry completely. Nail polish remover will help you get rid of its marks on your hands.
Grate the dyes with vegetable oil for a bright shine.
Beautiful egg stickers
On the eve of Easter, store shelves are full of an assortment of stickers for Easter eggs. Their variety is so great that it is sometimes difficult to make a choice. These stickers are very easy to use. Even kids can handle it, of course, under the supervision of adults. Eggs are better to choose the same size, then boil them until cooked. Before that, you can paint them with any dye, but this is not necessary.
Stickers must be cut along the line. Then each of them must be carefully put on the eggs. Separately, put a saucepan of water on the fire so that it is hot. Dip each egg in turn into the water. To do this, you can use a deep ladle. The edges of the sticker from boiling water immediately curl up, acquiring the shape of an egg.
The easiest option is regular egg stickers. Just paint the testicles in the usual way and decorate them with a cute sticker. They are also sold in supermarkets.
Egg coloring has its own history. Initially, our believing ancestors painted them red - the color of the blood of Jesus Christ. Over time, more and more new colors began to be used. Christ's Sunday was considered the most important holiday of the year, so the preparation for it was very rich and interesting. People developed new ways of painting and decorating.
And now, today, we have many variants of this symbolic action. In addition, talented housewives come up with something new year after year. Perhaps you have a couple of aces up your sleeve? We will be very happy if you share them with us.
Happy Easter to you!
Easter is a wonderful holiday. Multi-colored eggs are an integral companion of fragrant Easter cake on the ceremonial table. To exchange or treat them is a good sign, because they are wishes for good and prosperity.
Modern craftswomen have come up with many of the most extraordinary and very exciting ways of how to color eggs for the holiday. Marble eggs for Easter have become popular this spring. Such an unusual name for krashenka (namely, this is how painted eggs are called among the people) was received for its proximity to natural material. There are several quite informative ways to achieve a unique coloring. It is best to do this in the company of kids.
First coloring method
How to paint marble eggs for Easter with purchased paint, the experience of a young naturalist will tell. Also, recommendations on this matter can be seen on the paint bag. First of all, it is worth deciding on the number of eggs needed, because thanks to this it will be possible to calculate the required amount of dye. It is better to choose several optimally natural marble colors for painting. Then the krashenki can be laid out in a "kaleidoscope" around the Easter cake.
To get "marble" eggs for Easter, you will also have to stock up on a good piece of gauze, a few spoons of rice, selected onion peel, scissors and strings.
First stage
The first step is to cut clean gauze into the required number of squares (15x15 cm), so each marble miracle will be honored.
To make marble inclusions as reliable as possible, you need to cut them finely. Pieces no larger than a square centimeter will be optimal. So it will be more convenient to lay it.
In order for the "marble" eggs for Easter to shine like a real pebble, you need to take care of rice and husks. Pour a little water into a bowl with husks, do the same trick with rice. Such manipulations will help small particles of cereals stick to the shell and effectively imprint on it during cooking.
Next stage
An egg rolled in rice and husk must be carefully wrapped in a layer of gauze, the tail of the material must be tightly tied and cut with scissors. A snug fit will provide the strongest contact between rice, husk and shell. Coloring in this way will allow you to achieve natural overflows and layering of marble.
Next, gauze knots must be placed in a deep saucepan (you can use a ladle if you plan to create a small amount of “marble eggs” for Easter) and cook for about 40 minutes, so that all products reach readiness and are colored with husks.
Third stage
Now you can safely take on the dye. It is worth diluting the powder strictly according to the manufacturer's recommendations in order to end up with a high-quality solution. Vessels (glasses or mugs) should be placed as close as possible to each other in order to optimize the coloring process. If the manufacturer requires the powder to be diluted in hot water, the condition must be met, but allow the dye to cool before dipping the eggs.
The next step will be the final coloring of the products - the bundles must be lowered into the solvent and wait about three to five minutes for each egg. Next, gauze lumps are removed, freed from tinsel and rinsed under a stream of cold water.
With brilliant green
You can make the same "marble" eggs for Easter with brilliant green. The color of the dye is more saturated and deep. For this version, you will need all the same inventory as in the previous tip, but the dyes must be replaced with proven brilliant green. The disadvantage of this option for obtaining "marble" eggs is the scarcity of flowers, but, on the other hand, they can beat the monochromatic design of the celebration. Green napkins and glasses will perfectly balance the festive table.
The process of creating "marble" eggs
Pre-moistened eggs must be generously rolled in chopped onion peel and wrapped in gauze. It is necessary to tighten the gauze flaps carefully so that the brilliant green evenly lies on the shell.
Next comes the cooking process. So that the eggs do not break the pattern and do not burst at the most inopportune moment, it is worth adding a tablespoon of high-quality salt to boiling water. After that, you can safely pour in the super agent - brilliant green. For a dozen, one bottle is enough, but it’s still worth doing the dosage by eye.
To protect yourself from getting greens on your hands, you need to protect yourself with good rubber gloves. The pan can be easily washed after painting. But the hands can "green" so more than one day.
It is necessary to boil eggs in brilliant green for 10 minutes after boiling, after which it is necessary to remove the bundles and untie them. The finer the husk is ground or cut, the brighter and more pronounced the marble pattern will be.
Completely safe way
Many inquisitive mothers refuse to paint "marble" eggs for Easter with paints, brilliant green is also included in this list. To please the kids with such interesting dyes and not harm their stomach, it is worth remembering grandmother's recipe. To do this, you only need eggs already cooked, a lot of husks and How to make such products? To get a marble overflow, it is necessary to cover the eggs moistened with water with a husk and wrap several times with a cloth. The more folds and folds of the fabric, the more believable the "marble" will turn out.
On the same basis, you can carry out the coloring of eggs in speck. Instead of the husk, it is necessary to overlay the prepared eggs with rice and wrap tightly with gauze. It takes about 45 minutes to cook them. After that, it is worth pulling out the bundles and rinsing under a stream of cool water.
We have already described how to get "marble" eggs for Easter, the photos of which are presented in the article. I would like to dwell on one important point. The main nuance of noble "marble" products is the addition of vegetable oil to the saturated dye itself. After pouring the oil into the dye, it is necessary to stir the mixture with smooth movements, then dip the egg into it. The oil trail will spread on the shell in smaller spots. After drying, the egg must be dipped in a different color. So eggs made in the "marble" technique will acquire an extraordinary ebb.
cute pattern
Many craftsmen advise for Easter with their own hands. "Marble" and polka-dot eggs are the most touching and original products. We considered the first variant of creation. How to make a second pattern? To create eggs with polka dots, you will need special foil-based stickers or Thoroughly washed eggs must be pasted over with such circles and dipped in concentrated dye for a couple of minutes. Next, let the shell dry and only then remove the stickers (adhesive tape). That's all, the products are ready.
Conclusion
The abundance of techniques and devices of modern hostesses allows you to get the most colorful and structural varieties of color for Easter eggs. Old customs, translated into a modern colorful way, help to instill in kids love and respect for holy holidays.
