Easter time is generally the time of the year when eggs sales abound, all over! This means a lot of eggs are being used, and a lot of eggs cartons are thrown away! Now because nothing is ever useless in a recycling world, we are going to suggest to you 7 creative ways that you can reuse your empty eggs trays!
Re-Use Them as Eggs Cartons
Wasn’t that their primary purpose, in the first place? If you tend to shop at the farmers’ market, the sellers will surely thank you for making the effort to conserve your eggs trays instead of throwing them away. This means more savings for you and for them!
Use Them to Transport Cupcakes and Small Pastries
Do you have a bake sale at church and you have no idea how to carry those millions of cupcakes? Use your empty eggs trays! Provided that your cupcakes are not too big, they will perfectly fit within the eggs trays, and will even be able to close. This technique also allows you to carry many cupcakes at once.
Use Them as a Paint Palette
For all your arts and crafts projects, you can use your empty eggs cartons to store and mix the various colors!
Eggs Cartons as Mini-Storage Units
Empty eggs trays are very practical for storage purposes. You can use them to store a variety of items: delicate Christmas decorations (balls), small screws, jewelry, buttons, sewing items, beads, etc. The possibilities are endless.
Use Them as Seeds Ctarters
For those of us who like gardening, this is a great idea! Fill each cup of your empty egg tray with soil, and then add a seed in each cup. Once they start developing, transfer your growing seeds from the carton to the soil, and watch them spread!
Start a Fire
Empty eggs trays are highly combustible. If you are having difficulties starting a fire (be it at boot camp, to roast some marshmallows or simply at home for a barbecue, empty eggs trays can help! Simply put some dryer lint into each cup of the egg tray. Then, melt a candle wax in a double boiler and fill each cup of the tray with the melted candle wax. The candle wax will soon solidify in the egg tray cups, and when that happens cut each one, individually. Finally, light up each egg cup, and…your fire is done!
Use Them to Make Exotic Centerpieces
If you happen to organize a light afternoon cocktail or picnic, this would be a great idea in terms of decoration and creating a heartwarming and welcoming ambiance! For this exciting project, you will need one empty egg tray (for each centerpiece), a few plastic Easter eggs and a variety of synthetic cut flowers.
First, cut off the top of your egg tray. Then, insert one half of each plastic egg in the slot allocated for eggs, and add the flowers accordingly. Shorter flowers will work better. You can also paint and decorate your eggs trays and your plastic Easter eggs to make it more fun!
