Pysanky egg decorating is a traditional part of some predominantly Orthodox cultures, and it is a beautiful art form. Designs can range from the very basic to incredibly complex, and colors are built up with layers of dye. If you would like to try your hand at this art form, this kit has everything you need! It includes:

-Beeswax

-6 dyes THIS DYE IS NOT FOOD SAFE. DO NOT USE IT TO DYE HARD BOILED EGGS, ETC

-Medium delrin kitska (this is the tool you use to “draw” your design with the melted wax, and “delrin” means it is made of high quality plastic that will withstand the candle flame when you melt your wax.)

-2 design pages and an instruction sheet.

-(Example pysanky egg pictured here is not included 😉)

Please note that you will need a candle to melt your wax, and this is not included

If you would like more detailed instructions and color illustrations, please see the book “Decorating Ukrainian Easter Eggs” in a separate listing.

This kit was created by the Ukranian Orthodox family who owns www.ukraniangiftshop.com.

If you are decorating these as a family, we recommend that you add some extra kitsky so that everyone can work at the same time.
