Fruit Christmas Tree – Beautiful and festive Christmas Tree made with fresh fruit!
Ready for one more Christmas recipe? Although, this really isn’t a recipe, huh? It’s more of a craft, if you will, but it’s an easy one, I promise! No cooking involved. It’s just you, the fruit, a carrot and some toothpicks. And it beats paying $99.99 for the Harry David ones, right?
This little Fruit Christmas Tree project started out as something that I wanted my kids to do. I thought it would be fun and relaxing, and also picturesque to let them contribute to the whole Holidays ambiance in our home… buuuut… no way, friends! nooo way. I now know, without any doubt, that I have ZERO patience. NONE! I’m also a bit OCD and a lot of neurotic. I just couldn’t let them jack up the fruit the way that they were carrying on. It was too much for my eyes and my mind.
In keeping with all-things-edible, this Fruit Christmas Tree is completely covered in fruits: kiwi, strawberries, oranges, grapes, apples, and melons. Apart from all the fruit that you can see, what you are going to need is an unpeeled orange sliced at the base and at the top, a sturdy plate, a carrot and a lot of toothpicks.
