It was so fun to see how our colors turned out and Caden really enjoyed helping me mix the paints. They dried almost pastel on the paper which was fun. I wonder if we would have added more vinegar if the colors would be more vibrant.
This is how we dye Easter eggs and, yes, adding a bit more vinegar will intensify the color.
So great to know, Monica!
