'The King Of Smiles' Fruit Arrangement For Kids

The "King Of Smiles" pumpkin lantern makes a great garnish for a fruit arrangement for kids.

The pumpkin emojicon sculpture was created for a teenager boy and was sent to the birthday gathering on behalf of his loving mom. Usually moms are not the wanted persons on the teenager parties, you know ).

I say his mom was a really, really loving mom because she agreed with the my vision for the fruit gift and allowed me to make a lantern out of the pumpkin and to place it in the fruit platter.
So the kids could light the lantern in the evening and have a cool thing to play and fool around in darkness (mean have cool pictures with the pumpkin emojicon).

This is how the "King Of Smiles" has arised in the world. Almost every fruit display of mine has a background story.

Enjoy fruit carving and be free in creating and proposing your vision for fruits!

The King Of Smiles Forever!

DO IT YOURSELF (DIY) - How To Carve Wedding Watermelon With Heart And Roses Pattern

Enjoy fruit carving art with me and make your own Heart&Roses wedding watermelon using my tutorial. The Heart&Roses design is suitable for wedding and Valentine Day.  For making this pattern you need some carving tools as thai knife and U-knife.

Step 1. Choose a medium size round watermelon (5-6 kilo). Scratch a heart on a watermelon skin. Use a heart stencil to draw a nice one.

Cut a heart with a thai knife and remove green skin inside the heart silhouette cutting small pieces of skin.

Step 2. Carve a rose inside the heart. Then using a round-shape knife make slots. Cut from the heart edge toward the rose petals keeping the heart line.

Step 3. As far as you done Step 2 cut a bigger heart with a round-shape knife. Insert the knife into the skin to flash. Remove watermelon skin around the heart.

Step 4. At this stage you carve a rose wreath around the green heart.

Step 5. Complete the pattern with a band carved around the roses. The final look of the watermelon makes a fruit stand or a special plate what fixes fruits.
I garnished the Heart&Roses Watermelon with the flowers from raddish, kiwi and apple carving centerpieces. Orange one is a nectarine.
