by Lindsay E. Mack

Flowers are blooming, the sun is shining, and every day feels a little warmer. All of the signs suggest that Easter is just around the corner. As you prepare for the holiday, it's helpful to know where to buy Easter egg dyeing kits online. Because, thanks to the internet, your egg decorating choices are almost endless.

Whether you're looking for the classic kit or something a little extra, the world of Easter egg dyes will not disappoint. For the simple dye kits you probably used as a kid, Amazon and Target both offer a fun array of colors and styles. To get more intricate creations, though, you can order a special kit from Etsy to make some truly dazzling designs. (Check out photos of Ukrainian Easter eggs on The Huffington Post for some jaw-dropping inspiration.)

If plant-based dyes are more your style, there are plenty of indie sellers who provide all-natural options. With dyes made from things like beets or purple carrots, they are (more or less) good enough to eat. Oh, and you can even use ceramic eggs to make this tradition totally animal-free. Whatever your taste or lifestyle, these dye kits can help make your Easter celebrations a little more memorable.
