Ukranian Egg Decorating

Psanky or egg decorating represents part of the historical and cultural preparation for Easter for the Ukranian people. It consists of a special type of writing on eggs through symbols and color with prayers and good wishes for the recipient of the egg. The process involves drawing intricate designs using bee’s wax and a drawing tool called a kistka, and dying the eggs in successive layers. Revive or begin an Easter tradition in your family.
