Apple Faces

    Make some faces out of apples.
  • Peel off the skin and leave the stalk in place for the top of the head.
  • Sketch the face you want to carve onto the apple.
Apple Faces
  • Use the pointed part of the peeler or a plastic knife to sculpt a face.
  • If you like you can make tiny slits in the heads and add dried banana pieces for ears, seeds for eyes or currants for rotten teeth.
Apple Faces
  • Push the faces onto paintbrushes or garden canes and leave them to dry. Be patient – it will take about four weeks for the apples to dry out and shrink completely.
  • Once it's dried you'll be left with this funny face!
