Directions
1. Place a large piece of craft paper on desired surface and put all materials on top. This will protect the surface and also give you a place to dab brushes, wipe excess paint, etc.
2. Squeeze various colors of paint into plastic cups. Feel free to blend two colors to create a custom hue!
3. Hold the pineapple steady and use a foam brush to cover the leaves with paint, creating a solid base coat.

4. Use a paint brush to reach all nooks and crannies, making sure the leaves are completely covered.
5. Let dry before displaying at your summer soirée.
