Paper Egg Cups

To make these egg cups to serve warm or cold hard-cooked eggs in, you will need: paper; pencil; scissors; heavyweight paper folded in half; marking pens, crayons, or colored pencils; glue; and hard-cooked eggs.

1. Trace the patterns on this page onto regular paper and cut them out.

   

2. Trace each cutout pattern onto the folded heavyweight paper. Be certain to place the pattern on the fold. Cut out along all solid lines, including the chicken wing. Do not cut along the fold or the dashed lines.

3. Color as desired, then fold along all dashed lines. Glue together the sections indicated on the patterns. When the glue is dry, carefully place a hard-cooked egg in each cup.
