Description
In this workshop, you’ll get the chance to create your very own Pysanka in the traditional wax-resist method. Using a combination of beeswax, the “kistka” tool, and vibrant color dyes, you’ll learn how to create designs on the real chicken egg. Plus, you’ll have the option of turning your Pysanka into a hanging decoration (or a festive Christmas ornament). Perfect for children as young as 5 years old, kids are encouraged to join accompanied by adults. A materials fee of $15 is payable to the instructor in class. At the end, you will be able to take home one or two eggs decorated by you.
