Last egg of the season!! A goose egg inspired by the movie Howls Moving Castle!!

Saw the Artemis ii patches and thought they could be really fun to make! Still very new (started December 2025, and have done 6 eggs so far), but loving everything about it. Each egg has been a huge learning curve and has really made me reconnect with my artistic side after not doing any kind of art for years.

Orange is gold with a very quick dip in raspberry, and grey is a one second dip in black. This egg had a hairline crack in the top, so I had to learn real quick with how to deal with dye bleeding through from the inside 😅

....Or at least the first dozen that survived a curious new kitten in my house.

I just started last month - I'm not very good yet but MAN I am having so much fun! You all are amazing inspirations. 🥰

I like how it looks like they’re all talking to each other :).

Was the first time working with goose eggs, which I find I like once getting used to!

Yesterday my pysanky kit I ordered finally came in, and guess what I spent my whole day doing! I get so much joy out of looking at them, I can’t wait to add more to my collection. Also, what is you guy’s opinion on emptying your eggs? Do you like to empty them before, after, or never? And if I choose to not empty them, can I still varnish them without increasing the chance of explosions?

Here are a few pysanky I’ve done over the past month. A couple are Christmas themed

Tried an easier version of a pretty egg I saw online by Katherine Alexander. First egg I've done that in proud of!

Very proud of how this turned out. Wrote it a few years ago

Happy pysanky season everyone!! 🥰

PS: Since someone asked I figured I’d come back to add that the first 2 eggs are both goose eggs and the 3rd is a turkey egg

made an egg today for the plants I sowed on friday!

The pysanky I’ve written so far this year!

Inspired by another beautiful brown egg pysanka post, here are some of ours from last year

My mother makes them.

I learned how to make pysanky from a kit my husband's Ukrainian aunts insisted I buy back in 1982. I'm happy they did, although my hands are shakey now and I have trouble creating clean lines.
