An Egg-citing Way to Recycle!

Have a "Green" Easter

By Allison Rebenack April 15, 2011
Have cardboard or paper egg cartons left over from Easter? Why not let the kids use them to make a fun spring craft.

You will need:
cardboard or paper egg carton
green pipe cleaners
markers, paint or crayons
pom poms
craft glue
bud vase

Directions:
Cut out the egg carton so that cups are the only things left and you have 12 cups. Let the kiddos decorate the egg carton cups with markers, paint or crayons. Poke a hole in the bottom of the cup with a pen and feed some of a pipe cleaner in and bend to secure. Use craft glue to secure a pom pom in the center. Display the beautiful spring bouquet in a bud vase.
