Plastic Fork Carrot Craft Supplies:

* Plastic Forks {we used clear ones}
* Green Craft Paint
* Paint Brush
* Paper Plate
* Orange Colored Cardstock
* Kid Friendly Craft Scissors
* Low-Temp Hot Glue or Tape

Directions:

* First have your child paint the larger end of their fork {the eating tip} green.
* Set aside to let it dry completely and repeat for each carrot you would like to make.
* Now grab your orange cardstock.
* Cut out a large triangle to be the base of the carrot.
* Repeat.
* To finish off the Plastic Fork Carrots – hot glue or tape the orange triangle piece to the plastic fork to resemble a carrot.
* At this time you can add other embellishments you see fit {we added a decorative twine bow} and go straight to displaying proudly!!!
