My favorite carrots are these little crocheted ones that I hang from my dining room chandelier. I also swagged some pearl garland & added tulle bows.
I had one left over so it hangs out in this little bone china footed bowl w/ a couple of faux eggs.
A close second as my favorites, are the beaded pillows I got @ Ross, Marshall's or TJ Maxx (those stores are all the same so I get them confused) last year. Check out the pearl momogram pillow that I made. I stole the idea from Queenie @ Queenie's Vintage Finds & Treasures. I used a $2 thrift store pillow then layered an old lace-edged hankie & a super-old crocheted edge doily, glueing the pearl garland on the doily beforehand. No sewing involved...I just glued everything on w/ Fabric Tac. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this pillow! Thanks for the idea Queenie! I alos made the pearl monogramed platter that she shared w/ us. I'll share my version w/ y'all later in the week when I share all the rest of my Easter decor.
A twine-trimmed carrot hangs out w/ a crackle finish bunny I got @ Cracker Barrel last year. I bought a pair of them actually...the other is on my mantel.
Bunny & carrot S & P shakers.
And last but not least, a teeny-tiny paper mache carrot in my mini-curio.
Hope you enjoyed my collection of carrots...there are lots more collections being shared over @ Tam's...come w/ me to see them all.

Oh my gosh, don't I just love the carrots. What a hoot. You are too clever for words. They make me smile with delight just to look at them.
I have to admit, I've never thought of collecting carrots So cute thought!
Well, glad you came back. I totally understand the need to take a break. Now, I have to tell you that I don't collect carrots, but thanks to you, I probably will now! :O) Love the crocheted ones and the carrot pillow. The one you made turned out nice too. And yes, it's apparently true...I'm preg. I still have a hard time believing it at this age.
Oh, I just love a girl that can't sew!! That is me!! I will be back to study the photo of your pillow so I can create that one myself!! ;-)
Love all the carrots! Quite a nice selection for all those bunnies out in blogland (and a nod to the crackle finish buuny~my favorite!).
Thanks for your comments today on my blog. You are a sweetheart!

I have never seen a cuter carrot than your sweet pillow. Adorable! :)
Those crocheted carrots are so great! Did you tell us where you found those? I'll have to go back and read it again. Love the pillow monogramed in pearls! I am already trying to remember where I put those pretty vintage hankies that belonged to my grandmother. I can't wait to try this project. laurie
I LOVE those carrots! ALl of them! WHat great vingetes you have created! I invite you to link up to my Thurfty Thursday. Mr Linky will be up tonight. Your thrift store pillows and great finds will be perfect. What a room you have created!
Thanks for leaving me a comment -- that's how I found your blog!
I enjoyed my look-through -- the carrots are unique.
Isn't Keller near Dallas-Ft. Worth? We used to live in Arlington, and still have family in San Antonio and Houston.

Oh I know I'm late but better late then never. How clever to do a carrot 'Three Or More' post instead of the 'regular' Easter items. I also own those crochet carrots, but don't ask me where they are. I must have 'hidden' them somewhere LOL.
Have a great evening and thank you for participating,
Tam
What an unusual collection! I enjoyed seeing all the differentt designs and materials used in each carrot.

Creating Myself,
Happy Easter,
Marjorie.
Are you okay? It's been awhile since you posted.
Love all you carrots!
This post is precious....with all of your Easter Decor. I love the chair draped with the slip cover and that carrot. Too Cute for words! Also, I'm so glad that I could inspire you with an idea....that's a huge compliment to me....coming from "you", such a creative sweetheart as yourself. You are, and always will be an inspiration to me!
I hope you have a beautiful day...you deserve it.
Big Hug,
Queenie~
Hi Cami, I don't sew, and I don't attend to either. I'll rather pay someone to do the job, or do like what you have done to get around it. Your pillows are adorable, you did a wonderful job with them.... they look fantastic. Ya for glue!
