Another holiday has passed in the blink of an eye and I’m surrounded by the biggest pile of plastic Easter eggs! Are you stuck with a house full of plastic Easter eggs too? My kids did 5 egg hunts this year, yes, FIVE! Between school, friends, and family the amount of plastic eggs is intense. I always save them for next years hunt but we have way more than we need. I figured I can’t be alone in this problem and I’m sure I’m not the only one who doesn’t want to cause more waste in the landfills so I put together some great ways to repurpose plastic Easter eggs with the help of some other bloggers. So here you go!
