Printer-friendly versionI love the small details at parties that pull a theme together, so for the Watermelon Pool Party, I decided to turn plain plastic forks into cheerful watermelon-themed ones.
It takes only seconds--seriously, when I made the video, it turned out to be something like a 10 second tutorial. But aren't they adorable?
It's definitely more fun to eat watermelon with a watermelon fork.
Like video tutorials? I made one of those!

Watermelon Decorated Plastic Silverware Tutorial
These plastic forks decorated like watermelons are so quick and easy to make.
Materials for Watermelon Themed Plastic Forks:
- craft glue
- plastic forks
- green glitter
- black permanent marker
Simply use a paintbrush to coat the end of the fork with glue, and add green glitter. I used the extra fine glitter in Peridot from my Martha Stewart glitter set. Shake off excess glitter, and draw seeds on the fork with a permanent marker.
Ta da, watermelon fork! I just love it when projects turn out like I hope they will when I come up with an idea.
