Apr. 21st, 2019 01:09 pmI came across this video on using drop-pull tools to make pysanky: Malowanie pisanek woskiem pszczelim (With English subtitles)
I always liked the way this kind looks - it's amazing what you can do with something as simple as a pin stuck in a pencil. *_* Maybe I'll try this kind some time - but for now I'll stick with the kistky I've been using; the kind with a well for the wax, that you heat with a candle. You can do drop-pull with a candle as well, or so I've heard, but... far easier with some kind of heating element to keep a pool of hot wax, which I don't have.
...Also, I will have to remember next time, the tip for keeping the hand stabilized on the table. I never remember to do that, which probably explains a lot about why my lines wobble all over the place! ;p
