Make an egg carton craft for fun spring home decor.

Egg carton crafts? They can be recycled and composted, but they can also be amazing works of art.

My husband Mark isn’t into making an egg carton craft, but he eats eggs for breakfast everyday. This means we’ve had thousands of egg cartons in our refrigerator over the years. And, now that I know about egg carton crafts and art, I’m happy for the opportunity to have access to this free art medium, the egg carton.

We compost the egg cartons in our backyard compost bin, but I’m hoarding a few this week to make one of these egg carton crafts. I’m still in awe over the last image on this blog. It’s amazing what creativity and talent can create out of something most of us just stick in a compost bin or trash can.

I think each egg carton craft below is a work of art, and truly egg-cellent. I’d love to know what you think. Tweet me, or share a comment below.
