DYED POTOATO FLAKE Easter Eggs

, ,

Hi friends

We brought out our potato flakes once again and created these richly colored, Dyed Potato Flake Easter Eggs.

These eggs are easy to make and so fun to watch- place a drop or two of dye on the flakes and watch it spread. Check it out below.

PREP

  1. Add 1 tsp of water to each medicine cup/small container and two squirts of food dye, then mix. For lighter colors, use one squirt of dye. Set them aside temporarily.

  2. Turn your paper vertically, create your egg shape, and design it with thick lines of glue.

POTATO FLAKES

  1. Sprinkle plenty of flakes over all the glue and let it dry for about 10 minutes. The glue will be a little drier, but not entirely.

DYE

  1. Use your dropper or straw (place it into the dye, plug the top hole with your finger to create suction, tilt slightly to contain the dye, and then release it over the flakes) and add dye to your egg.

  2. Watch the dye spread and stain the paper and continue the process with more dye until the whole egg is covered.

  3. Let the eggs dry completely.

That’s it!

Happy crafting
