1.<\/strong>\u00a0Print (or trace by hand) an apple outline on the paper or semi-rigid cardboard, then cut to make your template.
2.<\/strong>\u00a0Trace two identical apples on each of the patterned papers, then cut out. Repeat until you have the number of 3D apples needed.
3.<\/strong>\u00a0Fold apples in two to make a crease in the centre of each one, ensuring the pattern remains visible inside the crease.
4.<\/strong>\u00a0Pair same-pattern apples together and assemble two by two. To do so, using glue stick, apply glue to the right underside of the first apple, then glue to the left underside of the other apple.
5.<\/strong>\u00a0Once apples are assembled, glue flat area to canvas using light points of hot glue (be careful not to spread too much glue or it could make a hole in the paper). Make sure to align apples properly and to allow space for both stalk and leaves.
6.<\/strong>\u00a0Cut the felt into several leaf shapes.
7.<\/strong>\u00a0Using the pruning spears, cut twig into 1-cm (1\/2-in) or so lengths (or according to the size of your apples). These will serve as stalks.
8.<\/strong>\u00a0Using hot glue gun, fix leaves and twigs to canvas or wood panel.
9.<\/strong>\u00a0Hang on your wall and\u2026admire these beautifully coloured fruit all year long!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
