Stunning Holiday Fruit and Vegetable Carvings
Evelyn Formentera sent this photo of a lovely vegetable bouquet of red and green peppers, which she made for her daughter’s bridal shower, with the following words:
I wanted to share with you some of the carvings I did for my daughters bridal shower. Your carvings were an inspiration to my carvings. Thank you for your time.”

Although this was made for a bridal shower, this bouquet made by Evelyn Formentera would make a striking Christmas bouquet with it’s vibrant red and green colors.

Holiday Fruit and Vegetable Carvings Featuring Watermelons
Kevin Cooper’s watermelon carving of booties or stockings could be used for a baby shower or for Christmas. The baby booties reminds me of stocking hanging on the mantel in anticipation of Santa Claus and the leaves are reminiscent of poinsettias.

Hang your stockings with a watermelon carving, like this holiday fruit and vegetable carvings example by Kevin Cooper.
