Ask us anything about pysanky—empty eggs

Ask us anything about pysanky—tools, technique, tradition and more . . . . To share our knowledge, our team of experts draws on not only our heritage, but also over 30 years teaching pysanky to all ages and levels of experience since 1991. Today's dialogue is on tools and technique.

Question – Why do I have to seal the hole in an empty egg?

Answer – It's so that dye will not get inside the shell. If it does, it will not only drip out onto your work surface, but also compromise the beeswax. 

Download a free handout by Joan Brander from our website here to compare the properties of raw eggs versus empty eggshells.


We believe that pysanky is a fun activity. We embrace “Panya Pysanka”, our cool, hip, and whimsical mascot character who follows us on social media to help promote pysanky.
