Easter Carrot Bags

So cute!  The boys are out of school this week and I wanted to start Easter fun!  I dyed some eggs..some worked, some didn't.  Some were beautiful some, well, not so.  ~smile~
I have seen cute carrot bags filled with goldfish in Wilton decorating bags.  Those are way too expensive for me.  I decided to make the carrots on my budget using plastic storage bags.  Super easy and a whole lot cheaper.  Have fun!




Easter Carrots

box(es) of whales...goldfish,  or cheese curls/puffs.  whales cost less, you get more and are same, if not less in calories and fat
quart freezer bags, however many you want to make
smaller carrots were made with sandwich bags, non-pleated
green yarn
permanent green marker
scissors

Cut bag(s) in a diagonal.  Holding a point at the bottom and cutting across to make a triangle.
Cut yarn into pieces long enough to tie bags in a knot.
Fill triangle shaped bag half way.
Pull top ends together and tie with yarn.
Color top of bag with green marker, to look like leaves.
Cut top of bag into strips.
TaDa!!
