Last Minute Craft: Easter Egg Characters

Hey!  Did you realize that Easter is this Sunday?  If you didn't, then don't worry.  I have got a great last minute craft for you.  With only a few materials, you can whip up these fun little egg characters in no time flat.  Let's get started!


Materials:
-plastic eggs
-Sharpies
-hot glue
-scissors
-anything else your creative mind wants to add

Carrot:
 
To make the carrot, glue half of a green egg onto the top of an orange egg.  Then add details with an orange sharpie and a green sharpie.


Chick:

Take a yellow egg and draw a beak with orange.  Then add eyes, feathers, and wings with black.




Bunny:

Take the top half of an egg and cut it in half.  Then cut down middle to form two ears.  Glue them on and then attach a bow if you like (particularly if you made a huge glue mess like I did on one).  Draw on a face with sharpies.  I used purple for the nose and black for the rest.





That's it!  Mine are perched in a basket with a bunch of other eggs, but I could see them on a wreath or propped on a mantle or something.  Where will you put yours?
