Scrappin' Chaos

Charity

Beautiful decorations that glitter in the candlelight make the whole house feel like Christmas! Craft a tray of sugared fruit this year or individual pieces to decorate a wreath or the tree.
The fruit is made from an assortment of accordion folded circles using the

Kreaxions Circle Cutter.

Each piece of fruit is made from a single circle of paper and follow these steps:

Instructions:
Step 1:Cut a 4 inch circle from cardstock.

Step 2:Score your circle into 16ths as shown in box 1 and box 2

Step 3:Cut a 1.5 inch circle out of the center.

Step 4:Bunch center of the circle together to create an accordion flower, secure to a paper circle base with adhesive. I use hot glue which looks a tad messy so I add a paper circle on top.

If you make accordion folds from circles 2.5inches or smaller you will need to cut a 1inch circle from the center.

Each piece of fruit is a stack of accordion folds (AF) glued to circles.
