A
Pysanka is an egg dyed with a wax resist method in traditional Ukrainian designs. The name comes from the Ukrainian verb
to write because the artist uses a tool to melt beeswax and write on the egg.
Whether you use your own creative designs, or you follow guides for a
traditional pysanka, these eggs are beautiful and a lot of fun to make.
This is a wonderful group activity. Drop in and make one egg, or stay
and make a dozen! Younger children can just dip their eggs in the dye if the kitska too is too difficult for them to use.
These eggs are not for eating after they have been died.Saturday, April 14
