Painting Eggs.

I did a post on this last Easter - but oh well.
The MIL makes these eggs for Easter Time, and last time I was the little helper.

She collects onion peel in a big bucket and then when Easter rolls around she picks fresh parsley,
You then place the parsley on a normal egg, wraps it in hosiery and then drop it in boiling water with the onion peel.
Leave for about 10 minutes and then voila! The onion acts as a natural colouring for the egg.
Very Fun.
We also put green and red food dye in boiling water, put special egg stickers on the eggs and drop them in so the egg sticker shrinks and attaches.
