Flowering Egg Shells

Create charming flowering egg shells to brighten your spring décor. This easy DIY uses real eggshells as tiny planters for blooms.  Perfect for Easter tablescapes, windowsills, or gifting. Learn how to clean, fill, and style your eggshell planters for a whimsical, nature‑inspired touch that brings spring indoors.
It looks like spring has sprung around here with all the flowers popping up as the temperatures warm and the sun shines.  We are still waiting for “El Nino” to hit, but until then, I’m soaking up the sun and making some flower-shaped eggshells with clippings from our yard.

This would make a wonderful centerpiece for an Easter table!

There’s something magical about the moment spring begins to nudge winter aside — tiny blooms appear, colors return, and suddenly everything feels lighter. If you’re craving a simple project that captures that fresh, hopeful energy, flowering egg shells are a perfect fit. These delicate little planters turn everyday kitchen scraps into charming mini‑gardens. In just a few steps, you can transform humble eggs into living, blooming décor that celebrates the season’s renewal.

Supplies:

Eggs
Flowers
Soil

Directions:

Crack the narrow end of a raw egg and break away a small portion. You can also remove the top quarter or half if so desired.
Empty the contents of the egg. Rinse the shell and let dry.
Fill half of the shell with dirt.

Insert small, fresh spring flowers and spritz with water daily.

 This simple DIY turns real eggshells into mini planters perfect for Easter décor, gifting, or brightening your home with fresh blooms.

 

 

 

I’m thinking these would be really cute displayed in a porcelain egg crate. I have my eyes set on this one!

These blooms stayed fresh for about a week. For a longer‑lasting display, try starting with seeds instead. Just set the planted eggshells in a sunny spot and let them sprout over the next week.
