Cabbages in a Metal Tire Swing and Pastel Carrots

 

I have a metal tire swing hanging over the pass thru between the kitchen and the family dining room.     I couldn't wait to take out the winter floral design I had in it and create a new spring design.     

I have a pink cabbage,  a green cabbage and lots of greenery in the tire swing that faces the dining room.

I have a big green cabbage on the side that faces the kitchen.

I have the pass thru cleared off for a change.     It's usually full of some sort of seasonal decor,   but I am keeping it empty for a while.

Well,  almost empty.....lol!      I do have a small vignette on it!

I have a carrot garland hung with/ under the tire swing.

Before...........................................................After

The carrots had to have a makeover to fit in with my colors!     I bought a pre made garland of carrots from Hobby Lobby,   a bundle of 3 carrots at Hobby Lobby ,    and a bundle of cloth carrots at Home Goods.     I took the bundles apart and gave each carrot a makeover.....but that's another post!  

Today,    my post is just about the pre made garland of carrots.

The make over was pretty simple,     I just wrapped each carrot in fabric.........

I hot glued the fabric together at the seam ,,,,,,,,,tied a thin strip of fabric around the bottom of the carrot........

Then,   I tied a thin strip of fabric at the top of the carrot!

I tied small strips of fabric on the rope between the carrots......

I used four different  kinds of fabric scraps I had on hand to cover my carrots......it doesn't take much fabric to cover them.

Not to change the subject,  but.......do you see the prints I have on the refrigerator.      When the kids were gone,   I quit putting stuff on the refrigerator.      I kinda like to now though!

Here's one of the prints I have on the fridge.......

This list keeps me focused on what I need to do to get the house cleaned for spring.

I think both of these are on my Pinterest account      Here's a link to my Print It board.......https://www.pinterest.com/penny2005/print-it/

Okay,   back to my fabric covered carrots.

This is a fun easy project that you can do while you are watching TV.

What's next on my project list?

I can't wait to show you the spring tablescape I created using the 6 bigger carrots !     See you soon.......
