Orange

If you want to dye orange eggs you should get 2 cups of yellow onion skins, 1-2 tablespoons white vinegar, and enough water to cover the skins with 1 inch.

Green or Blue

These two colors are prepared in the same way. The only difference is that white eggs will be colored blue and brown eggs will get a green tone.

The ingredients you need are 1-2 tablespoons vinegar, 2 cups shredded purple cabbage, and enough water to cover the cabbage 1 extra inch.

Silver

This is one of the natural egg dyes that sounds the most exciting. You should get a bowl and fill it with 4 cups water and 4 cups of frozen blueberries. Wait for the ingredients to reach room temperature. Place the eggs and put the bowl in the fridge during the night.
