7. Use them to start seedlings. If homemade paper pots aren’t your style, give some of your smaller seedlings a start in rinsed-out shells.

I probably like this idea so much because I use the cardboard cartons as seedling starters already and they are a perfect size. The cardboard doesn't have to be removed when the plants are repotted or planted, since they decompose, and the eggs could be crushed around the dirt before planting and also left with the plant. Cool.

I also liked this, since it is a great idea and you can still use the shells for another use when you are done.

11. Blade Sharpening: Keep them in the freezer and use to clean and sharpen blender blades by adding water. Then pour the mixture into your compost bin.
