Quick Pic: Pantone Eggs


"The graphic designer in me couldn't resist attempting faux Pantone Easter eggs.

I dyed these boiled eggs by standing them vertically in small cups of dye. Then I typed up the labels and printed them on ink jet temporary tattoo paper. Remember to print the words backwards! I used Silhouette brand tattoo paper I bought at my local PaperSource, but you can also get similar stuff from DecalPaper.com. I matched the color numbers using my chip book. Knowing they were correct gave me great inner satisfaction."


Quick Pic: Helvetica Eggs

Helvetica, a typeface developed in the 1950s and with its own feature-length documentary, is the official typeface of the NY transit system. There is a great article about the relationship between the two here. As it’s coming up to Easter, I wanted to share this lovely how-to on making an Easter egg tribute to the subway design. I dedicate this post to my friend Chris, who was so inspired by the pathetic Easter tree I made when he came to stay with me a few years ago that he’s gone on to make his own much better ones every year since. [Photo from here.]Tweet

"There’s a lot of science at work in Easter egg coloring. The dye needs an acid, usually vinegar, to bond with the egg’s shell. WIRED experiments to find the perfect Ph for egg color that pops."
