Decorating for the holidays is something I look forwad to each month. While Easter changes every year the 1 thing I know is I can always pull out these cute Easter Carrot Flatware Decorations and be ready for holiday.
One of the best parts about having a house to me is having a real dining room table. To some people this may not seam like a big deal, but after living in a railroad apartment where our table wasn’t easily accessible and rarely used it’s huge to me. I love to decorate for the holidays and love to decorate my table. I wanted to come up with something “cheep” and since I already had orange and green felt from other projects I came up with the idea to make carrot flatware holders that can add some color and fun to the table.
Easter Carrot Flatware
Cricut Maker
Step 1: Trace the carrot and top (template HERE) if you have a Cricut you can find the project in Design Space Carrot Flatware Holder
Step 2: Cut out the carrots and tops. If using a Cricut Maker I recommend the rotary blade!
Step 3: Hot glue the bottom carrot piece. Be careful not to glue to close to the edge or too close to the center. You don’t want glue oozing out or not being able to fit your silverware in. Also, make sure you don’t start at the very top if you choose to fold down the top.
Step 4: Hot glue the top of the carrot to the inside bottom piece
Step 5: Fold down the front of the carrot and glue a dot on each side. I left it open in the middle so I can slide a place card into it.
Step 6: Set your table and enjoy

I love this craft, because it’s super easy, very affordable and any one can do it. So get out that felt and glue gun and start decorating, and don’t forget to add some dyed eggs to the fun!
