Easter eggs in Lithuania 📷

There is a very old and widely spread tradition in Lithuania ( and probably in many more other countries as well) coloring eggs for Easter morning. Some of them eventually become just a lot more than a piece of food. Most may end up being never eaten. Because they become like a piece or art.

Have you ever seen anything like this?

Some people avoid any artificially made coloring materials, and do coloring as much ecologic as possible. Using natural materials, like onion peel and small leaves or flowers. Like this:
