Egg Carton Fish

Time:30 min Difficulty:Medium  

You betta believe we’ve got a great way to upcycle you old egg cartons! Here’s how you can turn them into your very own ex-squid-sit fish friends!

Here’s what you need:

  • An egg carton
  • Scissors
  • Glue
  • Paint
  • Craft foam or colorful paper
    TIP: If you don’t have either of these, you can paint some cardboard or scrap paper instead!

Here’s how you make it:

Step 1: Cut three cups out of your egg carton for each fish you want to make.

Step 2: Glue the rim of two cups together to create your fish’s body.

Step 3: Now your fish needs a tail! Give it one by gluing the bottom of a cup to the bottom of its body.

TIP: You can spice things up by cutting a cool design into the tail.

Step 4: Time to paint your fish! What kind of pattern do you want to give it? Don’t forget to give it eyes!

Step 5: Once the paint is dry, you’ll need to add your fish’s fins! Cut little triangles from your foam/paper and glue them to the top, bottom, and sides of your fish.

There you have it! You’ve got your own fin-tastic fish!
