Join us in discovering the centuries-old tradition of Pysanky and learn how to create these handmade gifts ready for springtime celebrations. Gifting Pysanky eggs is a cherished tradition in many Ukrainian and Eastern European cultures. These intricately decorated eggs often hold symbolic meanings and are exchanged as gifts during special occasions like Easter, weddings, birthdays, or other significant celebrations. The eggs are considered symbols of protection, fertility, and goodwill, making them meaningful and heartfelt gifts. They showcase not only the artistic skill of the creator but also carry cultural and personal significance when given to others.
