If you are looking for an Easter decoration try looking in your local Dollar Tree, I found the carrot wire form and some packs of brush carrots packs . Take a look at what I created.
Materials:
1.) Carrot wire wreath form
2.)Easter Carrots(I used 13 carrots)they come 2 in a pack.
3.) Hot Glue
4.) Twine, floral wire, zip ties or pipe cleaners will work.
5.) Fairy Lights
6.)Greenery any kind will work, ferns would work perfect.
7.)Handtag (optional)
Start by cutting pieces of twine long enough to wrap around the carrot . Zip ties, pipe cleaners or wire will also work.
Tie the carrots onto the wire form as you can see below I started from the bottom up. Add a small bead of hot glue to or vent the twine from slipping.
You will add hot glue to all the carrots you tie to the wire form.
Continue to tie them and feel free to add as many carrots as you want, it will make it fuller.
Make sure you arrange them as you are tying them to the carrot form.
As you can see this is how mine is turning out the filler the better.
Now it’s time to attach the greenery, whatever greenery you have will work. I personally think ferns will work better.
Simply glue them and secure them by attaching them to the carrots and wire from .
The last step is to wire the fairy lights as this will add a warm glow to the carrots. I started from the bottom up by zig zagging them and hid the wire between each carrot, hide the light pack between the greenery.
Adding the tag is optional but as you can see I did add them to my carrots. Very unique and creative, you can hang them on your door or place them on each side of your fireplace/or mantle.
