Vintage Clothespin Carrots for Spring
I began this project with a handful of vintage clothespins.
I gave them a quick, and I mean quick, coat of orange paint.
I wanted the vintage clothespins to have some of their original patina.
The orange paint came out more like a stain which was perfect!
If you can't find vintage clothespins then faux vintage clothespins will work.
I added a drop of E6000 glue to the tip of a small cutting of faux greenery I bought at Michaels.
You can find similar greenery on Amazon.
I stood the clothespins on the edge of a glass jar to dry.
You could add a little fine orange glitter to the carrots or leave them in their rustic glory like I did.
If you love repurposed Easter projects I have many on Homeroad.

I'm pretty sure I could make a carrot for Spring out of anything.
You can see the spindle carrots I made recently by visiting the bold link.
The pedestal dish is also one of the projects I made that I use all the time!
These carrots are going to look so pretty in my rustic farmhouse style decorating for Spring.
