Materials Required:
To make a paper apple, you will need the following materials:
- Construction paper
- Compass and pencil
- Scissors
- Glue
- Black colored marker
Step 1: Start with the Construction Paper
Begin by choosing a red construction paper to resemble the color of an apple.
Step 2: Draw and Cut Circles
Using a compass and pencil, draw nine small circles with a radius of 4 cm. Cut along the outlines to create individual circles.
Step 3: Create Semi-Circles
Fold each circle in half, creating semi-circles.
Step 4: Arrange and Stick Semi-Circles Together
Stack the semi-circles on top of each other, sticking them together one-by-one. Apply glue to one side of each semi-circle and press the ends together to ensure they are securely stuck.
Step 5: Add the Yellow Flesh
Take a light yellow colored sheet and draw a circle with a radius of 4 cm. Cut it out and attach it to one end of the red semi-circle stack. This will represent the flesh of the apple.
Step 6: Shape the Apple
To make the paper apple look more realistic, shape it by drawing an outline that resembles an apple. Cut along the outline to give it the desired shape.
Step 7: Add the Stem
Cut a small rectangular piece of paper to make the stem of the apple. Roll it thinly and insert it into the hole at the top of the apple. Ensure it is inserted securely and trim the tip in a slanting manner.
And there you have it! Your 3D paper apple is complete.
