Add Whimsy to Your Reading with a Carrot BookmarkAmazingly, this whimsical design brings personality to your reading time and reminds you that books don’t always have to feel serious.

With its expressive little face, it’s as if the carrot is following the adventure with you.

Each time you pick up your book, it feels like opening a garden full of imagination.

Materials Needed

  • White cardstock (8.5”×11” sheet)
  • Colored markers or watercolor paints (orange & green)
  • Black fine-tip pen for face details
  • Scissors
  • Hole punch (⅛” size)
  • Green embroidery thread or yarn (6” piece)
  • Optional: Clear laminate sheets for durability

Step-by-step Guide

Step 1: Sketch or print a carrot design about 6” long on white cardstock.

Step 2: Color the carrot with orange and the leafy top with shades of green. Then add a simple face for extra charm.

Step 3: Cut out the carrot carefully along its edges.

Step 4: Punch a small hole near the top of the leaves.

Step 5: Thread green embroidery floss or yarn through the hole and tie a knot to secure.

Step 6: Optional, laminate for durability before cutting if you want it to last longer.

Tips:

You can experiment with other vegetables like radishes, turnips, or even a smiling corn cob for a whole set of garden-themed bookmarks.
