Some brown paint was lightly dry brushed on the hang tag to add to the distressed look.

and burnt umber was added to the edges of the carrot.

For the cardboard carrot hang tag bow I used 2 ½ inch wide burlap ribbon cut approximately 7 ½ inch long. Coffee-stained muslin strips about 6 inches long, and a 7-inch piece of mesh ribbon that I found at the Dollar Tree. Stacking the mesh ribbon then the muslin strips all on top of the burlap ribbon. Leaving one of the muslin strips hanging down with the words Bunny Bait wrote on it with a paint marker. Gathered all together in the center and tied with a piece of twine.

The bow was attached using hot glue, and topped off with a wood button in the center.

I tied a piece of twine to the top of the cardboard carrot hang tag for hanging. That’s it for this fun and inexpensive spring décor. Would you have guessed that the carrot was made from a piece of cardboard?
