Friday Egg: Pink Spider Chrysanthemum

Brown and Pink Floral Mixed Traditional and Contemporary Pysanky, Batik Folk Art Eggshell, Easter Egg

Friday Egg today is a Pink Spider Chrysanthemum design. The colors on this are non-traditional, though the scarf design is based on the traditional sakvy (saddlebags) design. If you are paying attention, you might notice that it is the same basic design as my "Like Holding Hands" egg I showed a few weeks ago - this is a fun design for me! One of my favorite parts of this design is the elongated diamond shapes on the scarf. It just adds a more contemporary feel to the normally traditional design. I love the Barbie pink (Lily Rose from Pysanky Showcase) and Golden Wheat against the brown background. And for added interest, the texture of the goose egg really shows through on the background layer. All in all a fun egg to make and a fun egg to look at!

Happy Friday!
