Scroll Saw Project - Basket of Apples

The scent of cooking apples is a treat for the nose in the fall. Imagine the aroma of a fresh apple pie in the oven or cooked apples and cinnamon on the stove top. What better place in the autumn than the kitchen for a sign with apples as the motive?

Instructions:

2. Saw all of the pieces out and sandpaper the pieces smooth.
3. Paint the basket and sign brown and the apples red with green.
4. Let all of the pieces dry. Drybrush shading and highlights on all of the pieces. For the apples use brown and yellow and for the brown pieces use black.
5. Drill the holes in the appropriate pieces according to the pattern. Drill a hole in only 2 of the apples.
6. Glue the remaining apples onto the basket using the picture as a reference. Use the wire to attach the remaining 2 apples onto the basket.
