Fruit Container

CONCEPT

I decided to make a container for green apples and focused on its color, shape, size, and weight. The aspect of my container that involves all four focuses is the funnel. I specifically chose a metal funnel to enhance the color and to also hold an apple without bending or breaking. The shape of a funnel fits an apple well. Like the apple it has wider top and slimmer bottom. I chose the funnel size that would best fit an average sized green apple. The function of my container is to present the apples in a more creative way and to glorify the apple.



MATERIALS

Along with metal funnels, metal skewers, wire, one rubber band, glue, and a wooden dowel were used to construct the container. The wire mainly held the container different materials together. The skewers were bent and glued to the funnel. The wire warped around the skewers and through a hole in the dowel. The rubber band was cut into pieces and glued at the bottom of the skewers to make the container more stable.
