Cajun Easter Egg Dying Workshop
Sunday, April 5th
1pm - 3pm
at the Big Top
1638 Clio Street

Come learn a beautiful way to decorate your
Easter eggs for your egg hunt, Easter baskets
or centerpiece.

Pat Jolly teaches us a Cajun Easter Egg
dying/transfer process using old silk ties and
raw eggs. In "the old days" the Cajun women
would save all fabric scraps to use as color
transfers to dye eggs. With the invention of color
fast fabrics, only silk that has never been washed
or to the dry cleaners works to transfer the dyes
(and beautiful patterns) to the eggs.

Please bring your own raw eggs (in the container)
plus any old 100% SILK ties that you are willing
to part with, or pick up a few at garage sales
or resale shops .... RANDOM Patterns are best ...

$5 / Free to Three Ring Circus Members
