I followed this pattern, here.
I didn't know how to carry a color on, so I searched it and found this great link, here.

Strawberry
My mom's other co-worker can't have strawberries because of allergies. So I thought it would be funny to give her a strawberry that she could actually have! I made the stem a bit longer by just chaining a few more and then brought it back down and slip stitched it to the top of the strawberry to make a loop, to make it a keychain.

Small teacups
So I updated my keychain from before. I added a teabag!
I then made another for my mom's co-worker who LOVES tea. It was her idea to make the teabags!
Teabag
Leave long tail, this will be used for the string of the tea bag and attached to the cup
Ch 4, Sc in second ch for hook and in next 2 ch, turn
Row 2-3(or to your desired height): Ch 1, sc in each sc across, turn
At end of row 3, fasten off and weave tail into piece
Using long tail from the beginning, attach to top rim of cup where ever you'd like the tea bag to be coming out of the cup.

Severed witch finger
So I made my mom a severed witch finger, then turned it into a keychain!
She LOVES it!
I made it from the same patter as before, here. I did however make the nail a bit longer.
For my nail I did something like this, I didn't count my rows as I went so this is approximate, but should be very close to it:
R 1 (AC[red]) - ch 2, 3 sc in 2nd ch from hook, turn
R 2 - ch 1, 1 sc in each st
R 3 - rep r 2, 4 times
R 6 - ch 1, 1 sc, 2 sc in next st, 1 sc, turn
R 7 - ch 1, 4 sc, turn
R 8 - rep r 3, 4 times
* To finish nail off, sc around entire nail and fasten off with enough yarn to sew onto finger
I didn't know how to do a spike stitch so I found this video that really helped, here.

Teacup keychain
I originally wanted to make this bookmark, here. However I had a larger hook, 3mm, and larger yarn. As I finished the teacup I liked the size for a keychain instead, so I chained a few, like the pattern called for if I was making a bookmark. Then after I chained about 10 I slip knotted into the stitch next to where the chain begain, and I used this for the loop to make it keychain. I did my best of what I understood of the handle as well. The tea color I followed but left out that last row that the pattern called for using the teacup color.
