Temari Balls...Easter style

Woo hoo! I've discovered eggs, lots and lots of eggs. I'm finally doing something to make money from the talents God gave me and that I have worked with from the age of 5. I'm opening a booth at my local artisans' mart. I've started with the smallest booth that I could, but it's a start. The day I took a couple of things in to show the owner and discuss renting a booth, I sold one of my Temari balls to a lady who walked up to the counter and HAD to have one. It was awesome!
Anyway, back to the eggs.  My booth opens April 1st, not long before Easter, so I've been making my balls ovals or egg shaped. It's been fun as I make up the patterns, using my creative side.
To show what I'm talking about, here are a few of the eggs I've made so far.



I made them with hanging chords, but they can also be used in a bowl. Wouldn't they look cute in a bird's nest? I've got more to make, but they work up pretty quick.

And a taste of my newest fancy-cute, furry goodness. More to come.


Thanks for checking in!
