RECYCLED CRAFT

EGG CARTON FLOWERS

Today we had fun making egg carton flowers. I love to make things from recycled materials, free supplies are always good. The texture of the egg carton gives a rough finish and the torn edges add to the effect. A brad makes a great centre for the flower and holds all but the last layer of petals together.

Messy to paint but fun.

I placed the finished flowers in a round glass bowl with some shells and other sparkly things.


Cheers,
Lynda

  1. My goodness! They're lovely. Such inspiration - and you wondered what you would possibly write a blog about...

    I will have to tell my friend Tara about these - she loves all things paper.
