These concrete cups are with a twist: they feature a metallic bottom, here the author preferred copper but you may also go for silver or gold. Such cups are great for a modern, minimalist, industrial and even rustic tablescape, though they can be incorporated in many other styles, too.

I totally love these cool pastel egg holders! They are shaped as hexagons and are thick enough to showcase a pastel-colored trim. Use the softest pastel shades to highlight the trim of the egg holders and serve the eggs with a modern twist. Voila!

Here’s one more tutorial with egg cups of concrete but these ones aren’t square, they are rounded, which gives them a softer shape and look. Making them isn’t difficult, just remember that you’ll need some time to make them ready. Painting or leaving them raw is up to you.

They can be pulled for a unique look or packed for a neat look. There are various metallic shades of wire to use, and such holders will give your tablescape a trendy look because metallic touches are in trend.

What can be more beautiful than simplicity? Take thick copper wire and form nest-like egg holders! They will look super cute and chic, and you’ll easily make them using copper wire and wire cutters.
