Pysanky 101

I am learning to make Pysanky eggs, and loving it. You start with a blank egg (at room temperature) and then draw a design on it. The egg pictured below is one of the designs I did.

Then you do some other detailed work, and wah-la...a finished egg. (well not quite, but mostly finished)

Here is another egg, I forgot to take the before picture, but this is a picture taken during the middle of the process. Pretty ugly, huh??

And magically it turns into this. (not one of my better eggs, but hey, I'm still learning)
