Question —What happens if I touch the wick of the candle with my kistka?

Answer – The wick is where soot from the candle is deposited. Soot from the wick will get into the tip of your kistka  and possibly clog it. The kistka may then need to be cleaned out.

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.
