Easy egg decorating method steps:

1. Wrap the egg in silk scrap, making sure the printed side of the material is facing the egg. Secure it tightly with an elastic or thick thread. The tighter you wrap it, the clearer the pattern will be.

2. Place the silk-wrapped egg on a piece of white cloth. Secure again with another elastic or thread. If you don't have any white cotton cloth piece- it's ok, you will have a little bit lighter stamp (as in our photos).

3. Place wrapped eggs in a pot. Fill the pot with enough water to cover eggs completely. Add white vinegar and salt ( 1 litre water, 4-6 table spoons of vinegar and 1-2 table spoons of salt). Bring water to a boil, turn the heat down and simmer for 10 minutes. Leave the eggs to cool.

4. Remove the eggs from water. Gentle unwrap the silk and after they get dry lightly wipe each one with the oil and Voila :)
