Egg carton flowers
Materials Needed:
Egg Carton (Not foam)
Paint
Paper Straw
Pom Poms
Scissors
Glue
Paintbrush(es)
How to:
First you’ll have an adult cut out four containers out of the egg carton. Trim around the edges so that it gives it a rounder shape for the petals of the flower.
Squirt some acrylic paint colors onto a paper plate and have the kids paint their flowers. Use any colors you’d like- a pastel palate looks super cute!
After the paint’s dried you can attach the stem of the flower by gluing it to the back. Use a paper straw so that it is thick enough to hold up the egg carton, if you use something like a pipe cleaner it will just bend. Next choose a colored pom pom and glue that to the center of the painted egg carton.
Voila!
