Decorating Easter eggs: Psychedelic style

Bring back the 60's with funky psychedelic eggs. These are so simple to do even your youngest lil hippie can help!

Supplies:
Hard boiled eggs
White vinegar
Vibrant food coloring ( McCormicks Neon food coloring works perfect!)
Colander
Paper towels

Directions: Place 3-4 eggs in the colander in the kitchen sink and pour some vinegar over them

Drip yellow food coloring on the eggs and swirl the colander a bit to let the color spread. Let set for about 30 seconds

Repeat the vinegar and add another color once again swirling and let it set for 30 seconds

Up to three colors can be added this way- after that you tend to get a muddy mess

After the last color has set rinse the eggs with water and let drain

Place them on a paper towel to dry
