Directions:

• Paint the Mini Crate* with brown acrylic paint.
• To give the crate an aged look, dry brush the edges with black acrylic paint.  Wipe off any extra paint with a damp rag.
• Seal the crate using Mod Podge Gloss*.  (This makes the crate look like it has been varnished.)
• Cut a piece of foam to fit inside of the crate.  
• Paint the foam with black acrylic paint.

• Cut the carrots from the garland.

• Poke holes into the foam that are large enough for the tips of the carrots to fit down into.
• Hot glue the tips of the carrots in the holes.

• Cut a small piece of white matboard that will fit onto the side of the crate.
• For a distressed look, gently rub Vintage Photo Distress Ink* onto the edges of the matboard with an Ink Blending Tool*.

• For the lettering on the sign, I used StyleTechCraft Orange, Brown, and Olive Glossy Craft Vinyl*.

• I used a Silhouette Cameo Electronic Die-Cutting Machine* to size and create my design.
• Cut the design using StyleTechCraft Glossy Craft Vinyl*.
• Remove the excess vinyl in and around the lettering using a StyleTechCraft Weeding Tool*.

• Use the StyleTechCraft Transfer Tape* to transfer the design to the matboard.  
• Gently rub over the transfer tape with a Vinyl Scraper Tool* and carefully remove transfer tape from the design.

• Continue adding the additional pieces of the sign.  (Did you know that the transfer tape is reusable?)

• Add a couple strips of double-sided foam tape* to the back of the matboard.  
• Adhere here it to the front of the mini crate.

This little U-Pick Carrot Patch is perfect for displaying on a mantel,

on styled shelves, or in a tiered tray.  There are so many ways to style it!
