Step-by-step instructions

1. 1

   Cut the clementine in half and let it dry overnight.

2. 2

   Apply a thin layer of acrylic paint to the cut side of the fruit. Press the painted side onto the card, repeating until the card sheet is filled with imprints — you may need to apply paint again. Let it dry completely.

3. 3

   Cut rectangles around the clementine imprints from the card. Punch a hole in the top of each rectangle and thread a 15 cm strip of ribbon or string through each hole.

4. 4

   Write the recipient’s name over the imprint with a felt-tip pen or marker, and optionally use a stencil.
