Tuesday Tips for pysanky — using empty eggshells and sealing the hole

Our Tuesday Tips for Pysanky. What’s your learning style? is it listening (we have a podcast), is it watching (we have a YouTube channel), is it doing (we have a tutorial), is it online (we have digital resources), or is it reading (we have unique publications). We’ve been doing all this and more since 1991 and this year we’re celebrating our 30th anniversary! Learning pysanky is easy, fun and affordable. Continuing in our FB series we have Tips and Troubleshooting for eggs, beeswax, kistka, dyes, candles, pencil guidelines, removing beeswax, emptying your eggs, varnishing your pysanky, using a drying board, displaying your pysanky and more . . . .

Today’s Tip is to use melted beeswax from the kistka to seal the hole and weigh down your empty eggshell with a small jar filled with just enough water to hold the egg under the dye. Here’s two resources from Baba’s Beeswax on this. You can download our FREE handout Raw Eggs vs. Empty Eggshells here. Also a subject of one of our Let’s Chat about Pysanky ZOOM meetings, you can watch a short YouTube video published in our Pysanky How To’s and DIY Playlist here.

Our team has you covered. You can trust the experts at Baba’s Beeswax. Our Mission is to provide you with everything you need to make beautiful pysanky the traditional way from pysanky supplies and kits to workshops and books. Our Vision is to inspire and encourage beginners, experts, and anyone interested in Ukrainian egg decorating to discover the magic of one of the great traditions of all time—PYSANKY!
