8 Stunning Fruit & Vegetable Carvings That You Can Easily Do Yourself
1. Apple Swan
You'll Need:
- apple
- toothpicks
Here's How:
1.1 Halve an apple. Cut a wedge out of one half on both the left and right sides. Cut another wedge out of these two wedges and repeat twice.
1.2 Fan out the sliced wedges to create wings.
1.3 Cut a swan's head out of the other half of the apple.
1.4 Insert a toothpick into the swan body to attach the neck and use apple seeds for the eyes. Carve a swan comb for the head from the rest of the apple and make a slight indent on the part of the head where you want to place it.

2. Cucumber Cactus
You'll Need:
- cucumbers, ends cut off
- wooden skewers
Here's How:
2.1 Take ⅔ of a cucumber, cut it in half, and place two wooden skewers on either side of the cucumber half. Make ⅕-inch slices along the cucumber until you reach the end (the skewers will prevent you from cutting all the way through). Repeat the entire process with the other cucumber half.
2.2 Remove the skewers and shape the sliced cucumber into a wreath. You can hold the ends together with a toothpick.
2.2 Build a small tower of cucumber wreaths and top with a carved flower radish.

Here's How:

8. Orange Bear
You'll Need:
- orange
- wooden skewers
- cloves
Here's How:
8.1 Cut off the top and bottom section of the orange and carefully cut two small circles off the bottom orange slice for the bear's ears.
8.2 Slice the top orange lid at the top and insert the ears. Place two cloves above the stem for eyes and the bear face is done.
8.3 Cut out the flesh of the orange along the inner rind. Remove the core and cut it into cubes.
8.4 Cut a wedge and a gap from the orange peel, creating two arms. Cut a small space in the back to fix the bear head into place and fill the hollow space with the orange cubes.
8.5 Stick the remaining bottom orange lid on a wooden skewer and push it into the side of the bear for a cute little parasol.
