Meet The Makers! European Etched Eggs by Christine Luschas
In the days leading up to the 2018 Bloomsburg Mini Maker Faire, we will be profiling the Makers that are appearing at the Faire!
A crowd favorite returns for the 2018 Bloomsburg Mini Maker Faire!
Christine Luschas!
Decorated eggs are an ancient custom that spans throughout Eastern Europe. In Lithuania the eggs (Marguciai) were either dyed and the design scratched with a sharp tool or wax was applied using the batik method. Natural dyes were used from plant base materials such as dried birch leaves and onion skins. Today, commercial dyes are used which gives the egg a brighter and richer hue.
I will be selling handcrafted etched eggs (goose, duck, turkey, chicken,) that have been dyed then scratched with a blade according to the traditions of my Lithuanian/American family. I began etching eggs fifteen years ago and it has become a relaxation tool as well as a passion. I have exhibited, demonstrated and spoke at several museums and ethnic festivals. In 2012 I appeared on the “Martha Stewart Show” to show the ‘Queen of Crafting’ how to scratch an egg.
