Paper Roses in Egg Packaging

I've been hogging plastic egg packaging for a few weeks now and this weekend I've decided to use it for storing pretty paper roses.

I made these from pretty pink paper with added wires and paper leaves. They are about 2" in diameter - perfect for decorating something small, like a vase, or a gift box. Or as wedding favors.

I also use them as bookmarks :)

The packaging used to hold organic free range eggs coming from a local farm and I don't think I'll switch to other eggs any time soon. The only thing I didn't like about my eggs was the plastic packaging, but now, after finding a second use for it, I think I like them even more :)
