How do you decorate eggs with a stained-glass effect?
There are two ways that pysanky artists achieve a stained-glass effect. One is to wax a white egg in the desired pattern, then apply dye to spots on the egg using either a paintbrush or some other application tool, such as a toothpick, a bamboo skewer, or a craft micro-applicator. The other method is to dye the egg black, wax the egg, bleach it back to white, and apply dye in the manner described above. A variation of this method is to dop the entire egg into the desired colors of dye (working from light to dark) and waxing over the areas to retain the dye color before each successive dye bath. I have found it to be quite difficult to apply black wax to a black egg when the black is the FIRST dye bath. This approach definitely requires the use of strong light and a magnifying glass! It is helpful to have white wax on hand for waxing dark coloured eggs. White wax can be made by simply adding a white crayon to your wax, then you will be able to see your lines.
Why does vinegar make egg dye stronger?
The dye binds to the protein in an egg shell; this is an animal protein, similar to silk or wool. The same types of dyes that work on silk or wool will also dye eggs. The dye molecules bind, both directly and via hydrogen bonds, to protein molecules in the eggshell. The dyes used to dye eggs are acid dyes, called that because they work best in an acid environment. Vinegar is an acid, and adding it to the dye solution makes it more acid, and potentiates both types of binding.
Should eggs be cold or warm to dye?
Eggs should be chilled before dying. Ideally you would hard boil the eggs before dying them or empty the raw egg to remove the yolk.

How do you dye brown eggs?
Brown eggs will dye just like any other color of egg. Brown chicken egg shells are a bit thicker and sometimes glossier. They take longer to dye, and thus may need a longer soak in vinegar rinse prior to dyeing. The colors will look quite different as well. Brown eggs cannot be made white unless you "etch" the shell using vinegar. Brown eggs are quite lovely, and look nice with colors such as yellow, orange, brick, brown, and black.
