'There are a few tutorials for this online and all are pretty much the same. The important thing here though is to NOT roll the eggs more than a couple times. Any more and you end up with solid color eggs. What you\'ll need: hard boiled eggs white vinegar food coloring colander paper towels rubber gloves Put a few eggs into the colander and splash with white vinegar. Starting with your lightest color, put one drop of food coloring onto each egg. Roll around the colander just a couple times. Take your second color and place a drop on each egg and roll a few more times. Let sit for 5 minutes for the dye to set. Rinse under cold running water. Pat dry with a paper towel and let fully dry for at least an hour. A few notes: -wear rubber gloves if you don\'t want dye on your hands. It stays on the skin for a few days. -put plastic wrap on your counter under where you\'ll be drying the eggs. The dye tends to stain the counter tops. -don\'t use more than 2 colors per egg. I tried 3 and the colors became too blended. -only place a few eggs in the colander at a time. Too many and they break the shells. -make sure you let them sit the full 5 minutes. Any less time and the colors will be pastel and muted (which is fine if you\'re going after that look). -and have fun!'
