[Woodcarver] Whatcha carvin'

[J and C Lukens]

Doug.....there is no difference.....Polish eggs are Pysanky style which
means "to write"....they use wax "to write" on eggs and then dip them is
sequence to get the coloration.....Poland is included in the Ukranian
area...they just have different names for decorating real eggs.....there
are areas that are known for their carved wooden eggs such as the Hutzul
people of the Carpathian mountains of Poland...hope this helps

carve on and God bless
