Easter egg decorating with a straw - Czech Cookbook
Vložit
- čas přidán 20. 03. 2016
- Marcela Hrabovská is a Czech professional Easter egg decorator with straw technique. She is also my mom's cousin. She received a special award from Governor of South Moravia for Master of traditional hand crafts for South Moravia region. It takes her up to 16 hours to decorate one egg and 800 - 1000 hand cut pieces of straw, which she glues on each egg. She has to glue each piece with absorbent part of the straw. It amazes me she can tell which side that is since those pieces are so tiny. If she glues it with non absorbent part it would fall down next day. Video shows her work on a quail egg. Her Easter straw eggs are part of Czech heritage and are kept in museums. Enjoy her amazing work!

Thank you :) I also posted a video of the whole process how it is done. We made the video when my aunt was visiting. If you are interested. :)
I am going to have a party at Easter to decorate eggs and I'm trying to find something all people can do. This looks like it might be a bit too advanced for most who will be here. Including myself :) They are certainly lovely!
I will look for that video, maybe I will try it alone and see how hard it actually is :)
I'm not able to find the other video you mentioned. Do you have a title so I can find it? Thank you!!!

ADHD kicking in here? I didn't even have the patience to watch it all the way thru,let alone try it. Just ff to the end results. Awesome!!!
Yes, I admire her patience so much! She is amazing! I tried it and it was very relaxing, but time consuming. :)
Oooooooo 😗😗😗😗😗😗😗😍😘😍😘syperr

Руке Вам се позлатиле. Предивно 🌹
I wouldn't have the time for all that but nice
It is her passion. You can cut larger pieces, she just enjoys the small ones. It takes her up to 16 hours to make one.
I wouldn't be able to break any of those eggs.
They are all hollow so they will last forever. ;)
Oh thank you, for that wonderful art.
K tomu treba vela trpezlivosti, este viacej talentu a lasky …… Nadhera !
+Luba Fontanez Presne tak!
