Keep Calm and Shop Early: Ukrainian Design Book 1

Starting in August, we're going to showcase a pysanka book every month, heading up to the busiest shopping season of the year.

Who doesn’t want a nice new pysanka design book, especially for Christmas? Whether there’s a beginner or seasoned pysanka creator you have in mind, this is a book you'll surely want to add to your list, and a great one to start with.

Check out this link to our Pysanka Power Video Clip published on our Baba's Beeswax YouTube Channel for a book preview that flips through the pages:

Ukrainian Design Book 1 is the first of a series of previously unpublished patterns to recreate and enjoy. By breaking the design down to its simplest form, the authors Natalie Perchyshyn, Luba Perchyshyn, Johanna Luciow and Ann Kmit have made it easy to create very complicated and magnificent patterns. The eggs are described from beginning pencil lines to the final dye bath, with brief explanations of symbolism and colour meanings.

A soft cover treasure trove of 101 pages with 24 pysanka designs from beginner to advanced, its Table of Contents also includes Working Area, Essential Materials, Optional Materials, Basic Pencil Division, and Finishing the Eggs.

Since there are 6 design books in this series to date, if you don’t have any of them, we think it’s a good idea to buy this one first. Then, years down the road, when you can’t remember which series number you have, you can always remember how many books you have! Then you can buy the next sequential number with some confidence.

We think that Ukrainian Design Book 1 is an eggs-cellent source of information to buy on its own or to add to your collection. If you have any questions about it, please ask us.
