- Ever wonder how on earth Ukrainian Easter eggs are made? If so, stick around for this video as I’ve created this beginner’s guide to creating beautiful Ukrainian Pysanky. I learned this ancient folk art as a child and over the years, I’ve made dozens and dozens of Pysanky. I’ll first take you through some of my collection and share with you a brief overview of the art and the meaning behind some of the traditional symbols. I’ll also share the items you’ll need to get started with links below if you’re interested in giving it a try. I close with a DIY tutorial for beginners on how to create a Ukrainian Pysanky.

What a treat to watch this on Easter weekend...brings back so many cherished memories of my Ukrainian roots. You are a kind and gentle soul. Thanks for sharing your beautiful artistry.
Thank you, Ellen!🤍💙🤍
I'm a 76 year old dude and have never tried to do this art of Pysanky egg-decorating but tomorrow will be my first time to join a group to learn the art of decorating. I'm very excited and I have committed myself to perform well and enjoy the magic Pysanky egg decorating brings.
Thank you for the Tutorial. You're an awesome instructor.
My Ukrainian roots have always prodded me learn this technique after watching my Grand mother when I was very young and only allowed to watch. 60 years later, here I am and very excited to learn.
You are the Bob Ross of pysanky. Wonderful tutorial!
Love these eggs, haven't made any in 20 plus years but am ordering supplies to share the craft with my daughters. Thank you! 🥰
i am so glad i found you on this Easter Sunday,thank you so much.
The best Easter eggs, the Art is out of this world!
Omg hooked, just ordered supplies to try this. My mom used to do this when I was a kid. She passed way to early, will channel her when I try my hand at this!
This was very informative! I have always wanted to make these eggs and this year I will do it to honour the Ukrainian nation.
Thank you. God bless Ukraine!
Thank you! This is going to be a new tradition for me and my granddaughter beginning next year!
me and my granddaughter loved thanks so much for sharing the egg was beautiful!!!
Very fun, thanks for sharing. I’m looking for new holiday traditions to incorporate into my time with my granddaughter. We’re going to give it a try.
Thank you so much for sharing such a beautiful video! I loved listening to you telling your connection and history with making them and your tutorial was fantastic.
i loved this the pysanky egg was beautiful thanks for sharing me and my granddaughter loved this!!!
Incredible! I can’t wait to make these. Beautiful eggs!
Just beautiful! Really appreciate how well everything is explained.
Perfect tutorial with lots of extra information. Thank you so much for your time! 🥚
I use silk ties to transfer some fancy patterns to eggs each year. A friend recommended I check out your video and try this technique. Fascinating artwork. Not sure I can draw well enough to do it, but maybe. I am a math oriented person, and there is a lot of symmetry here. Thank you for sharing your beautiful creations.
I teach this for our 4-H kids. I leaned as a kid and had the opportunity to bring it back to our community and teach the kids. This video was very helpful. Thank you.
Thank you so much! I’m very grateful and happy to find your channel. ❤️❤️❤️
Hi, Sarah! 🌷🙏🏼🌷 Thank you so much!!!
You make it seem so simple. Thanks for the tutorial.
WHAT A WONDERFUL TIME TO FOCUS ON ALL THINGS UKRAINIAN..... SENDING WISHES FOR PEACE AND SAFETY AND PROSPERITY FOR UKRAINE AT THIS DIFFICULT TIME. MANY ARE MAKING PYSANKY (OR AS THEY SAY: "WRITING" PYSANKY) FOR CHARITY IN SUPPORT OF THE UKRAINIAN PEOPLE AND THEIR COUNTRY AS THE COUNTRY SUFFERS.
Thank you for such an informative and reassuring video, Justina!
What a wonderfully made tutorial! Thank you so much!
Loved all the wonderful information....Pysanky was very beautiful!
Thank you for your very informative how-to. You make something intricate and beautiful look simple. I enjoyed watching and learning.
So glad you enjoyed the video and found it informative! Thanks for watching and for letting me know. I appreciate it! 💟🙏💟
The mention of the tour got my attention. Had to click on this video.
What a wonderful video. Thank you.
You have a very pleasant, easy voice to listen to and your instruction was inspiring. You made me imagine I could do this myself.
What a wonderful art! Thank you for the class!
Wonderful! Thank you! I learned so much watching!
This was super helpful to watch. You explained the process very well and I can’t wait to try it out!
Thank you so much! So glad to hear that! 🙏🏼😘💕🌷
Thank you for your tutorial. We have a kit and are getting ready to decorate our first egg. Great instructions!
Beautiful, clever, and looks like fun!
I'm new to Pysanky, but am very intrigued by the art form. I am signed up soon for an in-depth training class on how to do it, so this video was extremely helpful to help me have an idea of what I'm going to learn. Can't wait and fingers crossed that this is something I'll be able to do outside of the class.
I've wanted to learn the art of Pysanky since I was very young.This video was informative and nice to watch.Hope to see more videos on Pysanky from this You tube artist.
I loved how detailed you were in describing the process of making the eggs...they are beautiful!! I'll definitely, have to try it out...thanks!! 😁❤️
Awwww, thanks so, so much, Regina, for your sweet compliment and feedback. If you give it a try, please let me know! Hope you have a great week. 💖💖💖
Thank you so much for this eggcellent tutorial!
Have not yet done this but got a beginners kit in a Ukrainian museum in Midwest. Can’t wait to get started. This video was very helpful getting me past the initial problem of getting the eggs symmetrically pleasing. Thanks for this video.
Wow! No words!!!! Just absolutely stunning. You do such amazing designs. I am blown away. My favorite video of all time. PS. I have ordered the items you mentioned that would be good for beginners in a comment earlier.
Thanks so much for sharing your talent with the beautiful art of Pysanky!
Hi, Suzanne!!! 🌷💕🌷 oh my goodness, thank you so, so much!!! 🤗🤗 I’m so excited for you to give it a try! If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to DM me on IG, okay? 🌸❤️🌸
BEAUTIFUL job what a great art. Thanks for sharing such a beautiful art.
Thank you so much, Vickey!!! 💝💝🙏💝💝
Learned a lot, very well done. Thank you!
Thank you Justina! This video is beautifully done! I grew up making these with my Ukrainian/Polish Grandma (Bushi) and Dad. Going to try this again!
Thanks for sharing your beautiful art ✨💖✨🙏🏼
Absolutely beautiful
Love this video! 90+ years of family tradition I'm trying to get my daughters to continue. I love that you could get the wax off scraping with the small screwdriver! I also just bought an electric kistka and I'm having much better success with that. No more wax clumps and it writes so even! Thank you for posting, I really enjoyed watching! I have found that this is a great stress reliever and I will be doing eggs all year round.
So interesting, and well explained. Thank you.
What an awesome tutorial! Very helpful!
Beautiful designs, we feel inspired, thank you. Happy Easter from York, UK x
This was so interesting, the meaning of the designs on these eggs, simply beautiful! Thanks for sharing this for us.
Hi, Tammy! 🤗 Thank you so much! I’m really glad you enjoyed it. It was my pleasure and an honor to share this with you. 💕🌷💕
Yes I loved hearing you explain the history and the meaning behind the specific designs.
🤗💕 Oh, thank you! 💕🤗
Thank you for this wonderful and informative video. My kids and I watched it as inspiration before decorating our eggs.
That’s wonderful to hear, thank you!💕🌷🙏🏼🌷💕
This is such a beautiful art!
thank you so much for sharing this with the world! My mom is Ukrainian Canadian and bought me a kit for my birthday this year and I am just learning. Absolutely loving this instructional video
Beautiful traditions! Very talented
Thank you for this wonderful video. I have always been fascinated by this art from the day I saw them in elementary school when a student brought them in. I have always found these eggs to be so, so beautiful. I've always wanted to learn how to make them. Who knew that 50 years later and with the miracle of RUclips, that I would get to see how they were made! Thank you :)
THESE ARE GORGEOUS!!!
Grateful to learn more!
Just beautiful
I have eggs that my grandfather made. I wish I had thought when I was teenager to ask him to show me how me made them. It will be very special to try and make these. Thanks for the amazing video.
This was fascinating to watch! Thank you so much for showing us every detail, what a gift you have for making these beloved eggs. I’ve often wondered how this this technique was done, I must share with you, my sweet grandchildren and I did indeed craft those fun paper flowers last week. I wish I could share a picture of them, each one pretty and unique! I love your channel, and you!
Oh, Cindy, thank you so, so much for your incredible sweet words. Means so much. 🙏 I'm super happy to hear that your grandchildren had a good time with those paper flowers. I'd love to see how they turned out. Here's my email if you'd like to send me a photo: hello@justinauram.com I love that you love my channel. 🤩 That makes me feel so good. Appreciate you, and sending you my LOVE! 💖💖🤗😘💖💖
I just ordered the kit !I am so excited to try my hand at this I do henna which is quite similar to the way lines are laid down...I have also done wax-resist dying textiles..Thanks for the great tutorial
What a wonderful video and the editing and camera takes are superb. Love the step by step, you make it look soo easy! Thanks!
What a kind comment. Thank you!♥️
I just watched this video. I was... going to skip through but I was so interested in the presentation and tutorial, I am watching it again! I am from Bethlehem PA, I have known about these all my life. But here in Virginia Beach, they are not that well known. What a wonderful and so informative! I loved the video Thanks so much!
This is a treasure. Thank you ❤
I want to try this so much. I collect eggs & it seems like a thing I would enjoy aside from drawing.
I've always wanted to try to make Psyanky eggs. I even have the kistka and dyes. Just never had the nerve to start. Your video has really inspired me--I just might give it a try!!! Thank you for being so thorough in your explanations and tips!!
That's so wonderful to hear! Thank you, Ellen! 💟🙏💟 If you have any questions as you go through the process, please don't hesitate to ask. I'm really excited for you to give it a try. YOU CAN DO IT!!!
Gorgeous!
Seen an article in a newspaper 30 years ago and was fascinated.Tried them and got hooked on making these.I make them when winter gets boring.Always fun to do and a beautiful keepsake.Hopefully I'll be making them for another 30 years. Love the video
Sue, that is wonderful to hear. Thank you for sharing your love of pysanky with me! I bet your eggs are beautiful. Thanks for watching, and hope you have a lovely weekend! 💙🌹🥰
Loved this Thank You
I loved this video. I learned about Pysanky 7 years ago. I have made several of them. I am trying to put together a class for kids to teach how to make them for an on-line platform. I am just a little bit intimidated. But I'd love to share this art with kids!
Wonderful works of art and a beautiful tutorial! Thank you! Prayers for Ukraine 🙏💕
Beautifully done your voice is clear and loud. Your explanations are simple and easy to follow. Symbols made sense and were wonderful to hear. Big thumbs up.
Hello, Hope! ❤️ Thank you ever so much for your kind comment and for your feedback. I really appreciate it, and thank you so much for watching. Glad to hear that you enjoyed the video. Hope you have a wonderful week! 😊😊😊
Sharing this with a friend.
Very nice demonstration. Years ago a local Catholic religious goods store had a woman demonstrating how to make these. They were so beautiful!
I’m an 9 year old and I’m starting my own shop thank you for your tour
Hi, Erica! 🤗 Thank you for watching! Is it an Etsy shop? I’d love to check it out. Would you send me the link? 🙏🏼
I so enjoyed. Going to look for some books at Book-a-Million!
I love this beautiful artwork and I remember seeing them from a Ukrainian family in my childhood neighborhood in Flint MI
Really relaxing,interesting and useful video! Congrats for your skills!! I tried last year with a non electric handmade kistka but the lines weren't so thin and clear. I need to get an electric one and practice a lot! Thank you so much for sharing..Happy Healthy Easter!!
Thank you!🕊
Beautiful tutorial!
Hi! I first came across Ukrainian Easter eggs and the art of pysanky when learning the godly play story of the legend of the Easter eggs. They are indeed beautiful. ❤
WOW! thank you!
Great video on pysanky
Love making pysanky It’s good to refresh my skills I’m not a pro by any means. I use the same books.
Thank you so much.
This is a really good video. I especially appreciated the explanations of the symbols, showing how to correct a mistake, and how the kistka needs unclogged at times. Highly skilled artist and teacher. Thank you and Happy Easter! Christ is risen! He is risen indeed!
Janet, what a sweet message, thank you ever so much! I hope you have a blessed Easter. Christ is risen! 🙏🏼🌿🕊🌿🙏🏼
Great demo! I'm looking forward to attending a church group i=next week to make our own special Ukrainian Easter egg. Thumbs up to a well done video.
Excellent - thanks!
Thank you, James! 😄
Excellent.
Thank you!
This is a good video for this art.
First, your hair. Second, this is my favorite video you’ve ever made. It was sooooooo relaxing to watch!!!! And thanks to you I have my three Pysanky eggs we made together still in my living room!!! ❤️ Perhaps one day you can show us how you make the multi colored ones?
Awwww! 💖💖💖 Thank you so much, Friend! Oh, I am so happy to hear that you still have the eggs we made! That is so sweet! Yes, I think I will do a second tutorial at some point with multiple colors...a tutorial for intermediates!
Loooovveeee! Just beautiful ✝️💖
Awww, thank you so much, Kasey! 💙🌹🙏🏼🌷💕
Thank you so much
When marking the initial lines in the egg with pencil, I've found it easier to use a rubber band. You can position the band anywhere and at any angle, the rubber makes it grip.
Use a band that's somewhat wide, make sure it's lying flat and trace along the edge with your pencil. No jagged lines.
How do u do that without crushing the egg? How do you get the egg white and yolk out of the shell
@@lindabaker1776 How do you place a rubber band on the egg so that it doesn't crush the shell?
Easy, you just place the band on the egg. Eggs are surprisingly tough. hold an egg in the palm of your hand, over a sink, wrap your fingers around it and squeeze. You can squeeze as hard as you want and the egg will not break. The shape of the egg distributes the force equally.
The only way I know of to remove the yolk and white is to make a small hole on both ends and blow it out.
I believe they make little devices that will suck it out for you, that way you'll only need one hole. Any good Pysanky website will have tools for sale that will remove the interior.
Great video!
Beautiful, girl! Great show of an "easy" design ☦️
Thank you so much, my Friend!!!!
❤️❤️❤️🥰🤗🥰❤️❤️
I like your teaching style. I personally like using green eggs and brown eggs for variety in addition to white eggs.
Marvelous!! We have a group of ladies gathering to make them.
I have a dozen eggs that I kept in the back of my refrigerator (forgotten) for about 3 years. They were completely dried on the inside when I took them out. they are about 12 years old now. I have them up in my art room on a top shelf. I really should do some art Pysanki on them.
