Tutti frutti and oh so cutie, these DIY painted fruit coasters will be the perfect addition to your summer fruit-themed celebrations or a Fruit-Themed Birthday Party. Make these hand painted coasters before a party or use them as a fun party activity for teens and tweens!
To make the kiwi coaster, start by painting the top of the wood slice coaster with green paint. Don't paint over the rough bark edge as it will resemble the outer skin of the kiwi.
Use a slightly darker shade of green paint and paint an oval in the center of the coaster. Once the green paint has dried paint a smaller white oval with thin lines extending outward.
Use a toothpick or the end of a small paintbrush to create the seeds with black paint. These seeds will go in between your white lines.
To create an entire set of tutti frutti coasters, follow the same steps with different colors. To create an orange slice paint the entire coaster orange and then use the white paint to outline the outer edge of the orange. Create wedges by drawing lines from one side of the coaster to the next.
To make the pineapple, I simply created a crisscross pattern and added small dots with the end of my paintbrush. I cut green felt leaves for the pineapple crown and hot glued them to the back of the coaster.
Fill your guests' glasses with fruit punch or delicious fruit smoothies and make sure they have a tutti frutti coaster to set their glass down on while they party!
