Creating your own edible fruit “bouquet” is a fun and creative way to celebrate Mother’s Day—and it’s also incredibly easy to DIY!

What you’ll need: 

  • Fresh fruit (such as berries, pineapple, grapes, melon, or apples) 
  • Floral foam 
  • A decorative pitcher or vase 
  • Wooden skewers or lollipop sticks 
  • Cookie cutters 
  • Decorative greenery like lemon leaves or eucalyptus (optional) 
  • Ribbon 

How to make a DIY fruit bouquet

  1. Cut the fruit into bite-sized pieces or fun shapes using cookie cutters. 
  2. Skewer the fruits onto wooden sticks, layering different types of fruit. 
  3. Next, cut a block of floral foam to fit inside your pitcher or vase. This will hold your arrangement together. 
  4. Insert the fruit skewers into the foam and arrange inside the container. Add decorative greenery like eucalyptus or lemon leaves, tie a ribbon around the vase, and voila! The bouquet is ready to gift.
