Pysanky are the beautiful and elaborate Easter eggs found in Polish, Ukrainian, and Russian traditions. Learning this centuries-old technique for decorating Easter eggs is easier than you might think! Using a stylus called a kistka, we will write with melted beeswax onto the shell of a raw egg, and then dip it into vibrant dyes. Two different eggs will be completed in the workshop. Join us to make your own little heirloom - it’s a lot of fun, and the results will impress your family and friends!
