Grossy’s Guide to Tie-Dye Easter Eggs

If you know me, you know of my love of tie-dye! Words cannot express how happy it made me last year when tie-dye everything made a fierce comeback. Obviously I was ahead of the game because tie-dye has long been a favorite of all the coolest people in the world, but that's neither here nor there. The Pinterest Mom in me (I'm 80% water, 76% Pinterest Mom TBH) couldn't let this Easter go by without sharing these fun and easy shaving cream tie-dye eggs I make every year with kids and adults alike! They are the perfect Easter activity, and I can't wait to see all the beautiful eggs you create!
