Easter is perhaps the most favorite holiday not only for children, but also for adults. Everyone can show their imagination by making crafts from eggs with their own hands. The main thing is desire and a bit of creative thinking. Remember the years of your education in elementary school. How many funny chickens we made from eggshells, coloring them in bright colors and gluing funny feathers from colored paper. Then there was no thought about how to paint eggs. The answer was one - in watercolor. And how much skill was required to pierce an egg and pour its contents without damaging the shell! Thanks to our mothers, they always helped.
Now easter decoration is more fashionable than ever. Long before the holiday, crafts with Easter motifs appear in large shopping centers and supermarkets of our country: baskets with chickens, various mobiles, interesting supports for eggs and Easter cakes. But, of course, there is nothing better than a surprise prepared by yourself. It can be created without problems, showing ingenuity and a little skill.
Very interesting crafts from eggs for Easter can be made by involving all family members in this interesting and bringing together work. At least one fun and unforgettable evening together is guaranteed for you. From the eggs, little culinary specialists under your strict guidance will be able to prepare simple and funny tasty souvenirs, which they will then present to grandparents as Easter gifts. Dad will like more “man's” work - making an Easter mobile from branches, feathers, hanging leaves, etc. In the apprentice, you can take a son who will gladly serve glue and scissors, cut flowers and leaves from paper.
Traditionally preparing for the feast of the Resurrection of Christ, our ancestors painted Easter eggs, which they then gave to relatives and friends. Each family has its own recommendations on how to paint eggs. Some use exclusively natural dyes, others resort to special food colors. Yes, eggs painted with "chemistry" are brighter, there is less trouble with them, but there is no joy. Some believe that you should not puzzle over how and what to paint eggs in raspberry or turquoise. It is better to recall the grandmother's advice on traditional onion peel. This is the most common way of coloring, and the color can turn out different - saturated brown, golden or light red. It all depends on the concentration of the decoction.
If you have not yet decided what to paint the eggs with, then you will also be interested to learn about the possibility of using beetroot decoction. Eggs must be cooked together with pieces of beets in one pan. So, too, you can get various shades - from pinkish to deep red. If you want to achieve an interesting effect of “dots” in addition to color, you can dip the eggs in water and roll in raw rice, then “put” them in cotton bags and cook in a time-tested broth. After they cool down, the "outfit" must be removed. Everything, now you can admire the bright krashenki!
