These eggs have been in my hutch for 15-20 years...They are all dried up inside--but still have the wonderful color.

Since the flash went off in this picture--you cannot, really, see the depth of the browns.
Some of these are the X-small eggs---just for fun.

Another more "advanced" way to decirate is to just boil the egg in the onion skins "naked'.
Then--using the tip of a small pen-knife--you can scratch designs on it, exposing the white of the shell.
Doing one egg this way make take an hour or more--but it can look amazing. However--you have to face the reality that after you are ALMOST done--you hit the air bubble and crack the shell.

Sorry--I don't have one to show you that is done this way.....I may have one to photograph--if anyone really wants to see it.....
