  3. Stick a dark green pineapple leaf to the back of the yellow oval shape using double-sided tape.
  4. Stick a light green pineapple leaf directly on top of the previous dark green leaf then slot the yellow oval into the folded light green leaf whilst lining it up to the previous yellow oval shape.

  5. Begin to roll the rectangle and secure the end with double sided tape to create a stalk.
  6. To create a 3D leaf, fold 2 leaves in half and stick both folded leaves onto the flat leaf shape. Repeat this so that you have 2, 3D Leaf shapes.
  7. Stick the stalk inside the core of the 3D orange shape.
  8. Close orange sphere shape around the stalk, by sticking the remaining sides together.
