Hi, I'm Deborah and I'm going to show you how to make polka dot dyed easter eggs. All you really have to do is take a candle, this is a birthday candle, you have to take your warm, hard-boiled egg, this one is still warm. So I'm going to do several polka dots all the way around it. Little polka dots with wax. Once you have the wax on there, then you'll put it into your dye that you have already prepared. Let it dye for a little bit. This one I'm doing in yellow because it reminds me of the old song about the itsy bitsty teeny weeny yellow polka dot bikini. You have to be my age to understand that one. And then you take it out. Polka dots on an easter egg. You can actually do the same thing and make little swirly designs, almost anything you want using a birthday candle. And that's how you make polka dot easter eggs.
