Cost: $30
Equipment
- Scissors
- Hot glue gun and glue sticks
Ingredients
- 2″ tissue balls in fruit colors
- Gold, brown, and mint green construction paper
- Headband
Instructions
- First, hot glue the honeycombs to the headband in a grouping that you like. You can make your “fruit” headband as big and loud as you want it to be!
- Once you have the honeycombs placed, cut stems and little leaves from the paper to glue onto the honeycombs at different angles to help your fruits take shape.
- Put gold stems on the pink and purple ones to look like cherries and grapes, and then used little leaves and stems on the red for apples, and just leaves on the orange and yellow for lemons and oranges!
- Combine your headband with a frilly sleeved shirt, yellow dress, or (dare I say) tube top and long skirt and you’re all set!
