at easter you can make lovey decorated eggs using old tights...gather a bunch of leaves with a nice shape or pattern...hard-boil some eggs...cut the tights into sections...take a leaf...wrap it around the egg...then wrap the piece of material from the tights around it, tying a knot at the top to secure it...put the eggs into a large pot of boiling water along with the skins leftover from a bag of onions or any other natural dye you care to use and voila...pretty decorated eggs!sorry don't have any pics right now...wrong time of year.
