I cut out two slices in the shape of a watermelon (I actually cut on the fold so it was one less side to glue later.
I just used regular paint and a foam brush to add the colors of the watermelon to my slice. I painted on a trashbag, which helps the paint 'pool' a little and stick better to burlap. Burlap and screens, I've found, do best when painted on bags or the paint will seep through.
I used little round dabbers for my seeds.
I used a glue stick to glue the front to the back, but left about 6 inches open on one side....
I stuffed it with plastic bags to make it 'puff.' I added rope and ribbon. Super easy.
Very cute! Great job.
