Pisanki eggs are traditional Polish Easter eggs that are intricately decorated using a wax-resist method. The designs are created by applying wax to the egg with a stylus or other tools before dyeing it. The egg is then dipped in various colored dyes, with the wax preserving the original color underneath. This process can be repeated with different colors and designs to create elaborate and vibrant patterns. The eggs are often lacquered.


As for Polish immigration to Wisconsin, it was a significant wave of migration during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Many Polish immigrants settled in areas like Milwaukee, Racine, and Green Bay. They brought their cultural traditions, including those like the pisanki eggs, with them. The Polish community in Wisconsin has had a lasting influence on the state's culture, contributing to its art, cuisine, and religious practices
