Carrots Trio (Sq. & Hex) Fence Box Displays

For Easter and spring display, 

choose four-panel or six-panel dimensional carrots trios 

which stand upright on the platform box. 

Box top and bottom panels have openings to anchor shaft and tip.

Picket fence panels fit on platform front, back and sides. 

Fill will treats, or use as decoration only. 

Carrots measure approx. 8.5" tall (tip to top) x 1.75" (or 2.5") wide. 

Box measures approx. 8" long x 3.25" wide x 3.5" tall.

NOTE: The four-panel carrots tray is available from Silhouette America.
Both four and six panel carrot tray versions are available
through SVG Attic and SnapDragon Snippets.com.

ASSEMBLY: 
1. Identify and cut the shapes:
(These shapes are for the four-panel carrot version)
A carrot body panel (2)   B green carrot tops (4)
C platform main shape   D platform end
E platform bottom reinforcement
F front, back picket fence shapes
G side (end) picket fence shapes

(These shapes are for the six panel carrot version.)

A carrot body main shape (3)   B green carrot tops (6)

C platform main shape    D platform end shape

E bottom platform reinforcement shape

F front, back picket fence shapes

G side (end) picket fence shapes

2. Prepare the carrot body shapes (both versions)

by bending back on vertical perforations and

widest horizontal perforation,

forward at narrow neck perf.

3. Join the panels together at one side seam (4 panel) . . .

. . . or two side seams (6 panel). 

4. Form the carrot body into a cone and complete

the final side seam.

This image shows the four panel version . . . 

. . . and this image shows the six panel version.

NOTE that the symmetry of the assembled

carrot body shapes (both versions, make it

possible to flatten the assembly in order

to apply pressure along the seam edges.

Attach the carrot top 'greens' at the top of

each segment. Here is the four panel carrot . . .

 . . . and here for the six panel version.

5. Prepare the platform shapes by bending back

on all perforations and tabs.

6. Join the separate end shape by sliding the end

tab under the side straight edge of the main shape

(perforations and tab perfs should line up)

and completing the seam.

(Shown is 6 panel; assembly is the same for both.)

7. Bend the sides back to form a box tray
to overlap the straight end along the adjacent tab
perforation line, and complete the corner seams.

8. Press in the flanges within the carrot holes

slightly. Six panel shown here . . .

. . . and four panel shown here.

9. Prepare the end picket fence shapes by bending
back the side tabs.
10. Position and attach the end pickets to the
platform ends, with bottom edges aligned,
and picket centered side to side.
Bottom half of lower rail will attach to the
platform side.

11. Position and attach the front and back pickets,

overlapping and attaching on top of the

side picket tabs.

12. Prepare the bottom reinforcement shape

by bending up the edge flange tabs.

13. Apply adhesive to the backside of the

flanges, then insert the reinforcement into the

bottom of the platform. Push inward carefully

until the straight bottom edges are lined up

all around. Hold in place and apply pressure

to attach all flanges.

14. Complete the carrots by "gathering" the

necks together to the center and wrapping

with decorative twine.

15. Assemble the display by inserting

the carrot tip through the platform top opening

and allowing to extend down until the tips

rest in the openings in the reinforcement shape.
