I'm a Chick-with chicks!

These are 3 of our newest chicks, A Black Austrolorp, and 2 Amercuanas-they lay the blue eggs. We find them endlessly fascinating, and play with them all the time. The next stage in their developement they will resemble dinasaurs.

What is that girl up to?

The top picture is an altered Altoids Tin for a swap. Recycled the silver lining of a can of coffee-embossed in my Cuttlebug. Then faux finished it in patina copper. Inside are some cute little glass marble magnets.
The second picture is a pair of anklets from some leftover yarn. The pattern is from Ravelry-it is called Duckies Socks. I shortened the pattern to the cuff length I like.
