Eggs do come from Chickens!
I wanted to use a chicken Easter Basket this year!
I dyed the eggs in Turmeric! Wonderful dye, we do cook a lot with this seasoning, but be careful, it really stains, everything!
I decided to just splatter black paint on the eggs. I love the speckled ones, but too many of them out there now, so I wanted to do something different! Just dip your brush in paint and splatter on! Practice first for the look you want!
The basket was found at a thrift store, loved the tile on the front with a chicken and of course, my favorite, a Rooster. I just dry brushed some white paint on the brown basket.
I will be going to my Daughter's for Easter. I hope all your Baskets are full this Easter!

I never thought of turmeric for yellow dye. Great idea and the basket looks really cute!
What a great natural way to dye your eggs, and the splattered paint is a fun alternative. Really cute!
Your eggs are great and I love the little basket you've used to displayed them. Also, I'm giving you the Liebster Award for your great posts! :) You can check out the details on my blog post at - http://lorisglassworks.blogspot.com/
