Once all the Easter eggs have been dyed, what can you do with those empty cartons? Let your kids recycle them into dozen of tulips and daffodils.
| Prep Time: About 2 to 3 hours | |
| What you need: | |
| Egg cartons
Scissors Glue Green flexible straws Colored markers | |
| Seasons: Spring | |
| Materials: egg cartons, straws | |
| Instructions: | |
| 1. |  To make a tulip, cut an individual cup from an egg carton.
Trim the sides of the cup to form four petals (the ends can be
rounded or pointed). For a finishing touch, use a colored marker
to accent the edges of the petals. |
| 2. | For a daffodil, start with two yellow egg cups. Prepare one as described for the tulip. Trim the second cup so that the edge is even and the sides are about an inch tall. Fit the short cup into the first cup and glue it in place. |
| 3. | Finally, make a small slit in the bottom of each flower and
insert the end of a straw for a stem. Now your flowers are ready
to be arranged into a cheerful centerpiece for the Easter dinner
table.
