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 technique.
Question – How should I hold a kistka?
Answer – It is generally held like a pencil. You should hold it whatever way your motor skills make it easier for you to use. The important thing is to have the tip of the kistka perpendicular to the egg so that melted beeswax can flow out. Think of how gravity works to "pull something down".
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.
