Does anyone know about Indonesian customs involving egg shells?

Question

My parents recently visited Malaysia & the people they stayed with had an Indonesian maid. She had decorated a plant outside with empty eggshells. She spoke no english so no one could ask her why.(the owners of the home didn't even know why.) DOes anyone know anything about it? I've tried Googling but haven't found anything.

Answer 1

Egg shell's are used as compost. In Vie Nam they are used as art. Mail me and I' send a photo of the Viet Nam art. The compost, you are on your own
