Paper Pineapple

This pineapple looks way too good to eat which is lucky as it's made from paper! This would look adorable on your kitchen table - why not make a whole bunch of different fruits and veggies for a great display!

  • Step 7To create your pineapple’s foliage, cut a rectangle of green cover paper approximately 5cm x 18cm.
  • Step 8Cut triangles into your green paper as shown.
  • Step 9Roll your paper up carefully making each roll slightly lower than the previous. Pull the individual leaves out slightly until you are happy with the shape of your foliage.
  • Step 10Place your foliage on top of your pineapple and attach with glue.
  • Step 1Cut out strips of yellow cover paper using the following measurements: 1 strip 5cm x 60cm, 2 strips 4cm x 60cm, 2 strips 3cm x 60cm and 1 strip 2cm x 60cm.
  • You can tape two strips together to create the needed length.
  • Step 3Fold each strip concertina style as shown.
  • Step 4Bring the ends of each strip together to create a circle and attach with glue.
  • Step 5Dab a small amount of pva glue into the centre of each circle to hold in shape. Allow to dry.
  • Step 6Layer the circles as pictured to create your pineapple. Attach with glue.
