Can these be used to dye Easter Eggs? If so, any tips?

Yes, there are instructions on the India Tree Website. You will get nice pastel colors. http://www.indiatree.com/NC_Coloring_Guidelines_Easter_Eggs.php?Category=NC&Subcategory=NC_Coloring_Guidelines&Name=Easter_Eggs

No not really. They aren't the right scale or colors. You'd be better off painting some spheres yourself which is what I wish I had done.

You might. I don't have any. They come with markers that stink. I called Crayola and they sent me better markers, but still not the best

They would work best with sharpies, pens or crayons. They are not very good for use in a lazer printer. Too much curl and recurl so it wont feed correctly.

I used them for Zentangle art. They worked wonderfully for that. They have a different composition than the square coasters which did not take the pigment ink as well. My best guess is that these could be painted on with great success.

Use a Q tip or small paint brush, to apply. The dye will soak and run more than you expect; it's alcohol based. Good luck!

They CAN be painted; can't remember what type I used, but it was some cheap-o kid paint, and it worked long enough for my son to turn in the assignment! :)

I don't see why you couldn't use them to draw as they do not spread or run once they are applied; I use them to mark on fabric so can only theorize on the results on paper.

I don't see why not. They're universal but I would shoot for the darkest ones you can find. The two tone looks kind of tacky, and I wasn't terribly impressed with the quality either. My coworker has some that are either black on black or possibly black and charcoal that actually look really good.

Oh yes! Go crazy! Use a good latex enamel. It comes in small cans and many bright colors.

Yes, they would fit into a typical Easter egg. As far as total area, they are about 50% the surface are of a business card.

Let some wood putty dry on a piece of paper and then use the markers to test which color would be the best match. These work well, but you have to let them dry a couple of days and you might have to reapply now and then if you touch the area a lot.

Hi, that is such a great idea. I don't see why not since you can do anything with chocolate. If you want to show the brain inside I would recommend to put them after. If you have a sharp knife just make a little hole in the skull by shaving the chocolate carefully and use melted chocolate to glue it. I made jell-o ones with clear gelatin and put what you like in it. This time I am decorating the skulls for "Dia de los muertos" the day of the death a Mexican tradition and the kids love to make them look in youtube and you'll see how nice they are. I hope I was a help, good luck and have tons of fun

I use them for mixed media and art journaling. They are pigmented and I doubt if they would come completely out if you get them on clothes and try to wash it. Go to the Faber Castell site and they should have a contact us option and ask your question. It will depend on what you want them to be washed from like hands, clothes and etc.

They have a website and it gives you directions on how to mix the colours. I found after looking that up it was a bit trial and error. Make sure you buy enough product. I didn't!! Hope that helps.

i used it to "dye" easter eggs. Its tissue paper that allows the color to run if wettened. I have made stained glass using white glue mixed with food coloring on transparency paper

the most I can suggest to you is picking a dye out that you really like the color of. The frosting will suck up the color of dye -- or call the number on the box for advice.Hope this helps
