Holy cow! I must try this! Want to see if the technique will transfer to other mediums as well. The effect looks stunning!

I tried this twice. Once with a steel pot and once with a glass pot. All I got was white eggs! Does the material have to be 100% silk or can it be a blend? What did I do wrong.

These egss were so beautiful I had to try them right away. So I ran to my husbands closet as I was wathing Martha’s show and cut up his tie. Unfortunatly the colors didnt come out as bright and beautiful as Martha’s. Even though the tag said 100% silk – I have a feeling his tie may have been a silk blend. I’ll try this craft again after purchasing silk from the fabric store.

How in the world do I get a job in your crafts department!?! I want to come play every day!
I love these eggs! I saw this done a few years ago and I wanted to try it, but then I forgot about it until now, so thank you. They are beautiful.
