Easter Sunday with Cindy - Not your usual egg

Happy Easter to those who celebrate it! I've searched Etsy today for a few good eggs that are pastel colored confections. Instead, I've collected a few examples that reflect my own quirky sense of style. Hope you enjoy them and the links from the bead blogging world!
