Materials:
2. Wrap the items so that it forms a longer shape like a carrot adding more layers on one side than the other. The easiest way to do this is to start with a longer item (like our tube of bubbles), but it can be done with several smaller items, you just might have to use a little engineering
Continue wrapping, adding smaller items or crumpled tissue paper as filler, and using small dots of glue until your carrot shape is pretty much how you would like it. Use a little glue to secure the end of the streamer.
For the last layer, cut the crepe paper streamer in half or thirds so that it follows your shape more. Wrap with the thinner strips until your carrot shape is refined.
5. Add a dab of glue at the end to secure.
6. For the green topper, make a tassel out of green paper. You can do this by using a long rectangle (18-24 inches long) of green crepe paper. Use scissors to fringe one edge of the rectangle, leaving a 1.5 inch area intact along the bottom edge. Roll the rectangle along the bottom edge, using a dab of hot glue to secure every few inches.
7. Secure it to the top of the carrot with glue.
