My Creative Space: Easter Eggs

This week I have two creative spaces.  First is Easy Makes Me Happy's Easter Eggs:
Saw a link for these Easter Eggs at Easy Makes me Happy and liked them so much I just had to try it at lunch today. My results:

The lighting was not so good on this picture and I haven't had to time to weave in the ends, but I was so happy with the pattern from Easy Makes Me Happy that I had to share.  Per Easy's instructions, I used an F hook and I chose Red Heart Classic Worsted Weight Tropical Fruits yarn.  It's acylic, but the hardware store where I picked up the yarn only carries Red Heart and personally, I don't have a problem with acrylic yarn for my crafts... Now if it was for clothes, I'd probably be pickier, but I'm not that brave. I love how the yarn colors ended up being separated, which you can see in the above picture, - very Spring-y.  Thank you Easy for such a easy pattern.  I can't wait to keep making these. 
My two eggs: One with the Red Heart Tropic Fruits and the other with Rainbow Brights.

Inspiration

I was just over at One Pretty Thing perusing her Jewelry Round-up and saw this link to Bugaboo, Mini Mr and Me.  One of my big projects for Xmas was making magnets with these flat marbles and doing essentially the same thing that Kimberly is doing for her pendants and keychains.  What a great idea!!  I think I shall be adding this to my project list for gifts this year.  I found an old picture of my family friends and I when wwere in high school and will make some key chains for them.  Thanks Kimberly!
