Ukrainian Easter Eggs ~ Pysanky

Real Blown Out Eggshell Pysanka Ukrainian Easter Egg

Ukrainian Easter Eggs are decorated using a wax-resist method called Batik.  During the Easter Holiday my family enjoys creating these beautiful eggs.  We use a Ukrainian Egg Decorating Kit to create decorations for our own home.  They also make excellent Easter gifts for family and friends.  If you are not up to the challenge or just running out of time, you can purchase these amazing Ukrainian Easter Eggs.  I love eggs decorated with traditional designs the include flowers, birds and horses.  The following are a few of my favorites...
