A new Easter Tradition: Find as many silk ties as you can, take them apart and cut them into squares. Must be 100% Silk for this to work.
You carefully wrap an uncooked egg with the silk finished side towards the egg, tie it off with a wire tie, then wrap it again with a piece of white cotton cloth and tie that one tight.
Place your wrapped eggs in a non-ferrous pan, cover eggs with water then add 1 cup of white vinegar. Bring to a boil and continue to cook at a slow boil for 20 minutes.
Cool your hard-boiled eggs and unwrap! Some patterns will work and as you can see some won't. But you get a very different type of Easter Egg. You can polish them with a bit of vegetable oil when completely cooled. Can you eat them? As long as the shell didn't crack enjoy your Easter eggs as usual. You can sew the small left over tie pieces together to make some really different designs.
