All things Rubber

I don't have individual photos for these two techniques, so bear with me.

TOP CENTER (sort of blue with light green designs):  Rubber Cement Dripped on Eggs

RIGHT (Pink Egg & Green Egg):  Rubber Band Tie-Dye

Rubber Cement:  Dye the egg first if you wish.  Then drizzle on rubber cement. Let dry and then dye the egg.  Remove rubber cement.

Rubber bands:  Dye egg with a light color first if you wish.  Place rubber bands all over egg in different patterns. Dye, remove some bands, dye, etc.


Because some of you will ask... the spiral one is Sharpie Markers, the checkerboard ones are done with electrical tape! :)

Sharpie Markers.. So Easy!

Wit & Whistle blog posted this for Halloween, but of course you could adapt it for Easter eggs.  
Just drop the vampire fangs.  Or not.

Someplace, I have some photos of my Sharpie-eggs.  I just made simple squiggles, zig zags and swirls.  You can use colored markers directly on the eggs in their white/brown form, or dye them a light color first.  Just make sure they're dry first so the marker sticks (and you don't drop your egg).
