How to Make a Cute Carrot Button Art Craft
I shared the tutorial for how to make this button carrot art on Facebook live which you can watch here. Or if you prefer the photo tutorial, continue reading below.
Since the wood plaque is already distressed looking I decided not to paint it. Instead, I used a leaf stencil and positioned it on the edges of the plaque. Use a spatula to scrap the textured sand paint over the stencil and let dry.
Using a pencil, draw 3 carrot shapes onto the wood.
Next, paint each carrot a different color.
Sort your buttons into different colors and start hot gluing the buttons to cover the carrots.
Continue until the carrots are entirely covered in buttons.
Separate your greenery stems from the bunches and glue the pieces in place to make the carrot tops.
Next, take some raffia ribbon or twine to wrap around the stems into a bow.
Hot glue any other embellishments to your sign.
Hang and display your button art!
