Pysanky Eggs 2013

We watched The Sound of Music and then The Hobbit while we made them.  As usual I had no problem spending the entire day decorating eggs.

 

 I made 12 and Ben made 4.  Next year we'll need to get a bigger basket.

More Pysanky

My eggs from this year!

Easter Eggs

Pysanky eggs are Ukrainian Easter eggs.  You use wax to to draw on the eggs and dip them into different colored dyes light to dark.  Where ever you want to keep the color you put the wax.  They are so much fun to do.  I have been known to work for hours on one egg in serious concentration.  I love how brightly colored the dyes are; they always turn out so beautifully.  These photos are from last year.  I am looking forward to this year's eggs.  Time to start thinking about designs.
