Pysanky Deluxe Egg Decorating Kit

Learn the traditional Ukrainian art of egg decoration with this Deluxe Pysanky Kit! The egg is a powerful pre-Christian symbol that has long symbolized new hope, new life, and prosperity. Pysanky are made using dye and a wax resist to create multilayered, elaborate designs on the surface of blown eggshells.

This kit features three kistky, or wax scribes, with fine, medium, and heavy tips for drawing different line weights. Traditional kistky are made from wood, but these are made from durable delrin, a light-weight, heat-resistant plastic that will last for years.

Also included are 12 brilliant dyes (yellow, orange, scarlet, light blue, light green, dark green, pink, dark red, brick, turquoise, royal blue, and black), a six-page color instruction folder with helpful hints, designs, diagrams, full color leaflet to provide ideas, and one piece of light beeswax. Use the eggs on the cover or the sample images included inside as inspiration for your own designs.
