2019 Pysanky

Bee pysanky, a chicken and a goose egg

Pysanky Tools

I am particular about which tools I use for making pysanky. I prefer a delrin (plastic handled) kitska. I blow out my eggs before I work with them. I use cakes of 100% pure beeswax. There are a hundred different kinds of dyes, tools, lathes, and other gizmos you can buy and I can tell you which ones I wouldn't bother with! I purchased some extra dyes, kitsky, and wax that I use and recommend. They will be available at my next demonstrations.

I will be doing a one hour demonstration for all ages and question and answer at the Schoharie Free Library on Bridge Street in Schoharie on Saturday April 13th at 10:30am. It is not a class, and is not hands-on but I will have advice and some pysanky making materials for purchase if you want to start to learn. Come on out to see my pysanky on display and learn a bit about the process. I will have my ostrich egg on display as well!
