**Top Natural Dyeing Trends for 2025**
**1. Botanical Imprint Eggs**
Place real flowers or herbs (pansies, ferns, parsley) against your egg, wrap in pantyhose or cheesecloth, then boil in a natural dye (like onion skins or cabbage). The result? A delicate silhouette — like nature’s own signature.
**2. Flower-Petal Tie-Dye**
Scatter flower petals around each egg, wrap tightly, and simmer in dye. The flowers transfer their pigment in dreamy, organic patterns — each one a surprise.
**3. Layered Natural Dyes**
Start with one dye layer (e.g., turmeric yellow), dry it, then dip part of the egg in another (like purple cabbage). Add pressed petals between layers for a watercolor effect.
**Most Popular Natural Ingredients of the Year**
- Red onion skins: Rich burgundy
- Purple cabbage: Teal/blue magic
- Turmeric: Vivid yellow
- Hibiscus: Rosy and mysterious
- Spinach/parsley: Soft green
- Coffee/black tea: Earthy sepia tones
