Mad Bunny Baskets!*!

Inspired by a crochet newsletter I made these little 
Mad Bunny Baskets.  
Why are they mad you ask?

 Well you would be too if you had to carry around an Easter Egg as Big as You! 
I crocheted the baskets with 100% cotton yarn and a size g hook 
so they would be a little stiff and stand up.
The little mad eyes, nose, whiskers and mouth are embroidered on. 
The eggs are crocheted in the round over plastic hollow eggs 
(only 50 cents a bag at Walmart) 
using variegated pink and green sock yarns 
and lots of fun little bobbles and flower shapes to make them perfect for Spring!  

 
They have little hangers so that they can be displayed on those ever popular Easter trees 
or any other place you would like to display them. 
These were gifts for some of my lady friends,
 with a few chocolate kisses tucked in the baskets of course. 
If I get my act together maybe I will make some more 
to sell in my Etsy shop next year. 
It's a little too late now. 
Happy Easter and Spring to you all!!
