After you dye eggs, what can you do with all those empty egg cartons---recycle them to make beautiful flowers.

You need:
--egg cartons (cardboard)
--scissors
--glue
--green flexible stress
--colored markers

To make a tulip: cut an individual cup from a carton. Trim the sides of the cup to form petals (the ends can be rounded or pointed). For a finishing touch, use a colored marker to accent the edges of the petals.
For a daffodil: start with 2 cups from egg carton. Prepare one as described for the tulip. Trim the second cup so that the edge is even & the sides are about an inch tall. Fit the short cup into the first & glue in place. Finally, make a small slit in the bottom of each flower & insert the end of a straw for a stem. Now your flowers are to be arranged into a vase.
