Easter Egg Buddies

How sweet are these serene expressions? Using a fine-tip marker, draw on faces (eyelashes are everything, here). For the ears, create two loops with thin wire and hot-glue or tape to the back. Alternatively, color the centers of half-sized popsicle sticks with a pink marker and attach.
