Norman Williams Public Library teaches Ukrainian egg decorating

Wednesday & Saturday, Feb. 28 & March 3—WOODSTOCK—Anyone that has ever wanted to try their hand at Ukrainian egg decorating can have the chance on Wednesdays, 2-4 p.m., and Saturdays, 10:30 a.m.-1 p.m. at Norman Williams Public Library. The drop-in instructional sessions will be going on through March 31.

Danelle Sims started making these eggs about 15 years ago and fell in love with the process. There will be plenty of white chicken eggs on hand, and all the supplies. Anyone with access to duck or goose eggs who would like to try a larger project, feel free to bring them along.

The sessions are recommended for ages 12 and up, as there is work with raw eggs and wax melted over an open candle flame.

Norman Williams Public Library is located at 10 The Green, Woodstock. For more information, call 802-457-2295.
