How to Make a Palm Tree Table Decoration
- 1). Cut the tops and bottoms off four pineapples. Keep one top for later.
- 2). Use a sharp knife to hollow out the inside of the pineapples, removing 1-by-1-inch chunks of the fruit to use in the display. Leave at least 1 inch of fruit inside the walls of the pineapple shells.
- 3). Place the first pineapple on a table and insert four 6-inch wooden skewers into its top.
- 4). Set the second pineapple on top of the first by pressing down firmly on the skewers.
- 5). Insert four more skewers into the second pineapple and repeat the process to stack the third and fourth pineapples and secure them with skewers.
- 6). Top off the pineapple tree with one pineapple top.
- 7). Fill the top of the pineapple tree with fake palm fronds, inserting them at a 45-degree angle.
- 8). Cut fresh fruit into 1-by-1-inch squares. Combine strawberries, bananas, melons, pineapples and grapes for a colorful and tasty display. Use toothpicks to arrange the fruit at the base of the pineapple palm tree for guests to eat.
