If you've got a silhouette, you can make a string-art! It's quick, easy, and has a cool 70s feel.

Steps (7 steps, 30 minutes)
-
1Gather your materials. My piece of wood is a small chopping board from IKEA that is 15cm wide and 25cm long.
-
2Place your silhouette over your piece of wood and hammer in the tacks around the edges of the pineapple shape.
-
3
Rip off the silhouette and use your scalpel to remove any pieces of paper caught under the nails.
-
4
Use an adjustable slip knot to attach your string to the first nail. Wrap your string around the nails that make the outside of the shape, and then criss-cross through the middle.
-
5
Use an adjustable slip knot to fasten off and trim the loose ends of your string.

Repeat for the top of the pineapple.
