Before you throw out those egg cartons after dying eggs for Easter – set them aside so you can craft something AWESOME out of them!

Whether you make egg carton owls, a tree or today’s adorable Recycled Egg Carton Fox – I just hope we inspire some “foxy” creativity in you!

So save a few dollars and use recycled materials for craft time today!

Happy crafting my friends!!! #gluedtomycrafts

Recycled Egg Carton Fox Supplies:

* Egg Carton {empty/clean}
* Orange/Black/White Craft Paint
* Paint Brushes
* Orange Colored Cardstock
* School Glue
* Craft Scissors
* Small Black Pom Pom

Directions:

* First separate the egg carton. Discard the lid {or save it for another awesome project!}
* Now you are left with the section that has all the compartments. Go ahead and trim out a two egg compartment {side by side piece} from one of the ends. This is the head of the fox {see my picture for an example}
* Next have children paint their egg carton piece completely orange, with white and black eyes in the center of each egg compartment.
* To finish off the Egg Carton Fox craft, cut out two triangle ears from your cardstock and glue them to the finished egg carton piece. Then add other embellishments {like a black pom pom nose} that you see fit or go straight to showing it off!
