The typical colors of Easter are the colors used - yellow, green, red, reddish brown, brown, black. All these colors can be obtained from natural sources. At the end of the 19th century they were replaced by chemical sources.

Dyeing eggs can be done by natural means:

• yellow paint - saffron (slime), oat straw, tea, lime blossom. The caroller who brought home a basket full of yellow eggs did not have to fear the future. He did, however, have to be careful of his sharp tongue.
• yellow-green - nettles (roots)
• yellow-brown colour - onion peel decoction, tea
• green - Green eggs in a basket promised good health and plenty of work. Such a young man got a diligent and sensible girl for a wife, who turned every penny in her hand twice before spending it.
• thedark green colour - a decoction of spinach, young nettles, parsley
• light green - lime blossom, caraway or saffron
• red colour - beetroot juice. The caroller who brought home the most red eggs was promised wealth, happiness and health in the future. It could also predict that the boy would soon marry and get a hardworking, clever and good wife with a large dowry.
• black colour - alder bark, willow (roots)
• purple color - elderberry (dried fruits)
• white - If a bachelor had most of his eggs as white as fallen snow, a marriage of pure love awaited him, but to a girl as poor as a church mouse.
• blue - Cornflower, blueberries
• herb-bound egg - tie a white egg with small leaves e.g. yarrow, clover, dandelion, place on a silk stocking or cloth and wrap. Roll up tightly at both ends and dip in paint or decoction. After boiling, unwrap the egg and remove the leaves. Coat the egg with lard for shine.
