Dying Easter Eggs With Plants From The Garden: Photos Of The Day

SAN LEANDRO, CA — Have you considered dying Easter Eggs using plants from your garden or kitchen? Miyo Burnett ended up with very earthy colors when she tried the following:

• Beet leaves & parts for pink
• Turmeric for yellow
• Carrot tops for green
• Brown eggs wrapped in onion skins & dill leaves.

What do you think of her experiment? Will you give it a try? Miyo thinks the eggs will be harder to find when hidden for a Easter Egg hunt.

Thank you for submitting your photos.
