Last year I attempted my first Pysanky egg near Easter. (Photo below.) Pysanky is a type of Ukrainian Easter egg. I bought a kit from Yevshan - the Deluxe Ukrainian Easter Egg Decorating Kit and it only cost $16.98 plus shipping & handling. (I'm not sure if you can get similar kits at Michaels or Hobby Lobby.)
I didn't post directions on how I did it because I followed the directions at That Artist Woman.
Here's a video about the history of Pysanky.
And, this is a video about how to make Pysanky.
I'm excited about trying Pysanky again this year! Is anyone else going to give it a try?
Wow! That is incredibly gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteHi there! I've been off the map for a while so I need to catch up on your blog....lol!
ReplyDeleteI love these eggs, but the technique looks so intimidating. I'm really tempted to give it a try, though. The lady in the video has some gorgeous designs!
Great informative site, pysanky is something that was handed down to me through my mother and I know teach to my grandchildren. Thanks for sharing.
