In addition to being tasty, easy to cook and adaptable to 1000 and 1 recipes, eggs are a source of cheap protein. Of course, we have plenty of reasons to love them. But if you do not get yourself directly to the farm, eating eggs also brings a lot of waste ... and cardboard boxes tend to pile up. Our best ideas for recycling them.

Which box for which creative workshop?

Of course, the boxes that are easier to recycle are those in 'raw' cardboard. Rather than those with inscriptions directly on the cardboard, it is preferable boxes covered with a paper that just take off. We can then paint them and work them without bothering to hide the 'imperfections'. If you have printed boxes, do not panic. It is enough either to make sure that the inscriptions are not on the visible face, either to use a thick and opaque painting or a technique of collage to customize them.

What do we do with egg boxes?

Lots of things ! And not only odds and ends or manual achievements like trash. Phew! Judge instead by discovering in our slideshow the most beautiful creations of Pinterest .
