Frequently asked questions

How do you dye Easter eggs naturally?

Simmer natural ingredients such as onion skins, red cabbage, beets, turmeric or blueberries in water with a splash of vinegar, strain the liquid and leave hard-boiled eggs in it until they reach the colour you want.

What can I put in an Easter basket besides candy?

Small toys, books, seed packets, craft kits, hair accessories, bubbles, stickers and handmade treats all make great non-candy Easter basket fillers.
