Spring Flowers Egg Carton Craft

Egg Carton Craft

Celebrate the arrival of Spring with your kids with a beautiful permanent bouquet of flowers!

 

Kids’ Spring Flowers Egg Carton Craft

Take an egg carton and cut each “cup” into an approximate flower shape. I did this the night before to simplify the craft preparation in the morning. Make sure that you have a pipe cleaner per cup.

Break out the prettiest paint colors you have, and let the kids go wild!

Once the paint is dry, punch a small hole through the center of each flower base, and thread a pipe cleaner through. Bend it around a bit above and also below for stability.  Arrange your bouquet, place on the table, and admire!

Aren’t those flowers beautiful?!  I love how they are perfect for Spring and for Earth Day, too.  Thanks so much for the inspiration, Erin!
