Sleeves: Cut the sleeves and place a design on each egg. With a spoon put the eggs on their sides into the hot water. Make sure that the water covers them completely. As soon as the sleeve is completely wrapped around the egg, remove it from the water. Then dye your eggs according to the instructions on the pack of the packet. If dye stains can be seen on the sleeves, simply wipe them lightly with a cloth.

Rub on transfers: Dye the eggs according to the instructions on the back of the packet. Before spreading oil onto the eggs, choose the designs you prefer and dip them into water. As soon as the rub on transfers soften, remove them from the water and, with your finger, slowly rub the transfer from the paper onto the egg.
