I made these early this year so I could show you how to do it! It was a lot of fun and not as hard as I thought it would be.  I originally found this on the Not Martha Blog that a friend posted but I did things a little bit different.  EMPTYING THE EGGS  I took a push pin and poked a small hole in one end of the egg.  I took a pair of nail scissors and carefully cut a bigger whole around the bottom and tried REALLY hard not to crack the whole egg.  The trick is to keep your hand really steady and move around the circle slowly.  Make the hole big enough so that you can fit fun little treats inside.  I accidentally grabbed large eggs instead of jumbo ones which would have worked better because I could have fit more things inside.

Materials Small flat leaves (we used fern, cilantro, dill, thyme, and mint leaves) Hard-boiled white eggs Nylon stockings, cut into 3-inch-long sections Rubber bands Water White vinegar Food coloring Large glasses, one for each dye bath (be sure they're wide enough to hold an egg) Spoon -Lay a leaf on an egg, then cover it with a section of nylon stocking to hold it in place. Pull together both open ends of the stocking, then twist the ends together and secure them with a rubber band.      For each dye bath, mix 1/2 cup warm water, 1 teaspoon vinegar, and 10 to 20 drops of food coloring in a glass.

Carefully remove the rubber band, nylon, and leaf. Allow the egg to dry completely before further handling it. Materials Eggs Stickers Dye You can use ...
