I recently discovered the joys of making Pysanky eggs (wax-resist dyed eggs) and have been having fun making several (once you start, you can't stop!).
I made my very first YouTube short showing the process if you're interested.

| Same for that one. ... See if you can identify which these two above are in the box below! |

Happy Easter Everyone!

Wow, those are amazing. Beautiful. No, I’ve never heard of Pysanky eggs before. Happy Easter.
ReplyDeleteThank you Jane! :-)
DeleteThose are beautiful! Years ago, I purchased a kit with excellent directions on making Pysanky eggs. I've never had the proper materials close at hand, and I never remembered to look for them when I went shopping. I finally gave the kit away. I'm often tempted to purchase one when I see them, which isn't very often. Are the two on the left in the box the ones that you're asking us to guess?
ReplyDeleteHi Diane, that's interesting you had a kit! Of course, I don't need another crafty thing to do, but I couldn't resist trying them when I saw them. They are fun to make! :-)
DeleteAmazingly beautiful eggs! I have only seen this type of decorated eggs in a museum. So impressive!
ReplyDeleteThank you Marilee! :-)
DeleteOh, my goodness, those are amazing! But a lot of work (and artistry) involved. Thanks for sharing, and Happy Easter.
ReplyDeleteThank you very much Hallie! :-)
