It’s no secret that I heart free things… So of course I like free craft supplies (which is basically how I define upcycling). In light of Easter being this Sunday, I figured that if you ventured into Egg Dyeing Land — it’s a fun place filled with food coloring, vinegar, and stained fingers — you might have some empty egg cartons lying around. (Or if you live in the Foster-Donahue homestead, you go through a dozen eggs every time you turn around. Cheap, versatile protein! We love eggs.)
Oh what’s an upcycler to do?!
Ooh! Wait! I know! Call on me!!! (Just imagine my hand outstretched while I jump up and down all elementary-school-obnoxious.)
This week’s round-up features egg carton crafty curations (that was so alliterative, my heart skipped a beat… it’s the little things). To go back to the original source, just click on the picture (though each pic is labeled with its website of origin). Good blogging karma: check.
Enjoy!
