hanky pysanky...

every year when easter rolls around, i find myself trying to think of fun, creative, eye catching ways to decorate eggs. but, nothing i do holds a candle to the elaborately beautiful pysanky eggs of nicole bergeron.

pysanky is a ukranian decorating technique where eggs are decorated in very detailed patterns using batik techniques. if you can't tell from looking at these mini-masterpieces, pysanky requires time, patience, and a skilled steady hand...

i'm tempted to try and make ONE egg and show it off at easter, but i am not sure i'm quite up for the challenge. plus, with easter only two weeks away, the better bet is for me to visit nicole's shop and buy a few.
