Fruit Ideas for Your Party

Theses are the artsy fartsy fruit projects to do for your party!

Get a watermelon and slice open the top and carve out the whole melon.

Save the watermelon for later!

I took the excess juice and some of the chunks of water melon and blended it up with some juice that I bought from the store. Get some juice that you think would be good with watermelon. 

Once blended put back into the watermelon to serve as the perfect juice for your party!

Since it won't stay standing put in in a bowl full of ice. Also if you want to keep the lid for it you can pierce two holes into the lid and tie string around it like I did. 

This is why you wanted to keep some watermelon for the rainbow fruit kabobs!

I got watermelon for the red, cantaloupe for the orange, kiwi for the green, and grapes for the purple. 

Of course you can use what ever you want this is what I did.

Lollipop Ball

The next few artsy fartsy things are going to be from my birthday party last year!

This was a party favor/ center piece that was easy and quick to do.

Artsy fartsy need are: Dum-dums, a styrofoam ball, and a bowl.

You can choose how big of a ball you want to use, keep in mind that you'll be using half because the other half will be in the bowl. Then you take the dum-dums and stick them into the ball, try to keep them all close together while you do it or you will have odd gaps in-between them. After you have about half of the ball covered try and stick it into the bowl and see if you need to add more or less. And if you didn't want to have the lollipop ball in the bowl you could always put a stick through it so it would be a super lollipop. I thought it was just easier to put it in a bowl than try to balance it on a stick. 

This was such an easy thing to do and everyone thought it was such a cute idea! Plus since it's hard candy I got to keep it for a while after my birthday! I set it by the door so when people would come over they could just take a lollipop on their way out.
