The short answer is yes, you can eat hard-boiled eggs that have been dyed. The longer answer is that it's complicated. As long as you use food-safe dyes or food coloring in your decorating, the coloring itself will pose no health risks. The longer answer is the threat has little to do with the food coloring, though, since store-bought kits are safe for consumption. The problem lies in the amount of time the eggs sit out on display after they're decorated. Most people refrigerate them, but, some people leave them out overnight or all day long to look at the beautiful eggs.
I will admit that we do take the yolk out of eggs we want to display, so we can refrigerate the eggs and still have the beauty displayed.

The postcards are decorative for me. I have a couple and change them as the holiday approaches. See here:
