Tie-Dyed Easter Eggs

My sister found this WAY cool way to dye easter eggs...with SILK TIES!! Here's how to do it
Mine didn't come out nearly as bright as the ones in the tutorial, and it's hard to wrap it so there aren't any white spots...my advice is if you're doing a bigger batch, maybe add more vinegar? I'm not sure, but I did them with a friend of mine and it was a lot of fun!! (and I apologize I cannot get clear photos, but you get the idea)
ps. in case you didn't catch on, the silk behind is the corresponding tie
