Give the Easter Bunny a run for his money by dyeing Easter eggs the natural way, using common foods and flowers. And don't forget: The longer you soak the eggs in the following liquids, the more intense the colors will be.
Pink: Cranberry juice or the juice from pickled beets.
Violet: Water boiled with violet blossoms.
Lavender: Grape juice.
Yellow: A mixture of 1 cup hot water, 1 to 1 1/2 teaspoons turmeric and 1/2 teaspoon white vinegar.
Brown: A mixture of 1 cup hot water, 1 tablespoon instant coffee and 1/2 teaspoon white vinegar.
