Free Craft Projects - Beaded Fruit
What you need: Hot glue gun and glue sticks; fruit bowl or basket
as desired; silk leaves in gold, or green; thin skin plastic fruits: natural size and color. Available at most craft
supply stores; Beads: Bags of 6mm plastic faceted beads with holes, matching color of each fruit. Example, red for
apple; Steel, flat head pins.
What to do:
1. If fruit comes with leaves then purchasing leaves is not necessary
and you can skip step 4. Do not remove leaves from the fruit unless they slip off and can be
reapplied. If they do not have leaves, you may apply your own silk leaves with
glue.
2. Beginning at bottom of fruit and working in rounds up to top, place a pin
through the bead and insert the pin into the fruit.
3. Be sure to use the matching color of beads for the particular fruit you
are beading. Cover entire surface of each fruit.
4. Glue leaves near stem of each fruit.
5. Combine your completed fruits in a basket for a lovely table centerpiece.
