Materials needed:

- Scissors

Instructions to Make the Clay Pot Carrot:
STEP ONE
Gather all materials then remove all packaging and labels. Basecoat clay pot and saucer with primary orange acrylic craft paint. Let the paint dry and then apply a second coat, if necessary.
STEP TWO
Once the clay pot and saucer is dry, apply random swashes of bright orange and dark orange acrylic craft paint to replicate the texture of a carrot.
STEP THREE
Measure a four-inch by nine-inch rectangle of olive colored green craft felt, and then cut out with scissors.
STEP FOUR
Fringe the nine-inch length of olive colored green craft felt with scissors, leaving a one-inch section intact for rolling. Cut some narrow and some wide to replicate a carrot top.
STEP FIVE
Using a glue gun and glue sticks, apply glue to the solid section of felt and roll as tightly as possible. Work in small sections and take your time with this step.
STEP SIX
Attach the felt carrot top to the center of the clay saucer with a glue gun and glue sticks. Hold tightly in place until the glue has cooled.
STEP SEVEN
Measure and cut three lengths of natural jute twine 36” each. Wrap twine around bottom of pot and secure at the top center with a bow. Knot the ends of the twine to finish.
