ABSTRACT:
A device and method for decorating an object such as an egg, which has a perimeter surface. The device includes a resilient band adapted for placement about the perimeter of the object to be decorated, the resilient band having a surface and at least one prominent, resilient area for masking. The resilient area for masking is mounted against the surface of the resilient band, so that the resilient band may be placed about the perimeter surface of the object, so that the resilient band will bias the resilient area for masking against the perimeter surface, so that the perimeter surface of the object may be immersed in a colorant, and thereby producing an image on the perimeter surface of the object by preventing colorant to reach the perimeter surface. The method includes providing a resilient band with prominent areas for masking. Then placing the resilient band about the perimeter area in a manner that allows the prominent areas to be biased against the perimeter surface, and then placing the perimeter area together with the resilient band into a bath of colorant.
