Super easy and cute decoration craft here.
WATERMELON SLICES
from wood hunks.
I simply had the idea one day when looking at a stack of wood we have out back.
Here's some of how we stack it.
Well, a couple of the little end pieces were laying on the ground and it looked like a few hunks of watermelon to me.
So I grabbed it, cleaned it off and painted it up like so.
I just used acrylic craft paint in the craft section of Walmart. And I just used any red and green I had on hand.
And after painting on some red like that, I took a sponge brush and dabbed on the green to the "rime" and had to water it down a it to get it to soak in good enough.
And in the pic, you can see I dabbed on some blackish brown for the seeds and came back in with a touch of white to make them stand out.
As you see, any shape of little hunks of wood will basically do.
Just paint'em up and sit'em on your porch in a cute tray!
Happy Crafting, see ya'll next time,
