Shrunken Heads
More Halloween Decorations

More Halloween Fun


MATERIALS
Firm apples
Paring knife
1 cup lemon juice
1 Tbsp salt
Toothpicks
Heavy string or cord



DIRECTIONS

Peel and core a firm apple. Use a pen to draw large features on one side and then carve them out with a knife. Soak the head for 30 seconds in the lemon juice and salt to prevent browning. Set aside and repeat the process with more apples. Make knots about 6 inches apart in your string or cord. Pass the sting through the cored middle of the apples. Stick toothpicks through the knots and rest each apple head on a toothpick. Tie the string to a coat hanger in a place where the apples can dry. In a few days, the apples will shrivel up and look like shrunken heads. Great for centerpiece decorations at your scary party.

HAVE FUN!
