DIY Watermelon Wrapping Paper

May 17, 2015May 17, 2015 Andressa Hara Comments Off on DIY Watermelon Wrapping Paper

Hello, friends!

I have been obsessed with watermelon lately. Can you tell you?

I was pinning fun ideas and stumbled upon this fun tutorial here. I figured I needed to try. I worked on this DIY watercolor watermelon gift paper and I had so much fun! Here’s the final result! Doesn’t it look pretty? In love! Would you like to make your own?

Here’s what you will need for this fun project!

  • Wrapping Paper *I used white Kraft paper
  • Paint bowls *It can be a plastic cup, whatever works best for you.
  • Red, Green and Black Paint *I used lush foliage, black and red.
  • Paint brushes
  • Potato wedges *I cut 3 different sizes just for extra fun!
  • Baker’s twine and our free “You’re Sweet” tags

Step 1: Cut a piece of the wrapping paper big enough for your gift.

Step 2: Squeeze some red paint on a disposable plate and start stamping the wrapping paper with the potato wedge. Great thing about this project is: the watermelon slices don’t need to look perfect!

It will look like this. Once you are done with this first step, let it dry.

Step 3: Squeeze some green paint in a plastic bowl. Use a brush and paint around the edges.

It will look like this:

Step 4: Squeeze some black paint in another plastic bowl. Use a very thin brush or the tip of the brush to add the “seeds”.

I hope you enjoyed this fun tutorial and gift wrapping idea! You can even get the kids to help. My little boy loved stamping watermelon wedges on a plastic paper!
