Start with a dozen eggs. Watch five explode as you extract the insides. |
|
Painstakingly decorate an egg. |
|
Destroy the same egg and others by using the wrong gloss coating. |
|
Tip: Use the spray on the left, not the coating on the right. |
|
Painstakingly create more pysanky eggs. |
|
|
|
Spray with the correct coating, then recoat the egg with the incorect coating. This will create blobs and help collect fingerprints. It might also continue the process of making the dyes run together. Yay. | | |

I have lots of eggs hanging around that are not display worthy. They're ones I've spent a good bit of time creating, but wouldn't display because they have been wrecked at some stage in the game. My thinking is that I would like to pitch them to someone with a baseball bat so I can enjoy the explosion.
Honestly, I don't get too stressed over making mistakes, but I just wish I could learn more quickly from them.

HI Jan!
It certainly isn't an easy skill but you sure have learned a lot and have some gorgeous creations. You are inspiring :)
Oh, the joys of crafting...lol.
These are beautiful! Eggs are a tough medium that I don't have the patience for. . . unless I was throwing them against a canvas. I'm surprised you didn't get to that point! They look gorgeous!
What about making mosaics out of the pieces?
