Apples do more than fill the fruit bowl in autumn — they fill the craft table too. This set takes the apple five ways: a garland to string, candle holders to wrap around a jar, a wreath to hang, jar labels for a batch of apple butter, and dried-slice ornaments for the window. Every template prints on one page, so the orchard is ready before the first apple is picked. Print the pack, cut the apples, and let the house smell like autumn.
Ages 5–8. The garland, wreath, jar labels and dried-slice ornaments are cut-and-string, suitable for 5–6s. The candle holders are paper rings for a jar with a tea light inside — an adult must handle the flame; best for 6–8s with supervision.
Apple Garland and Wreath
String the apple garland across a window or a shelf, and hang the wreath on a door. Both are black-and-white cut-out templates to colour and cut along the dashed lines: thread the garland pieces on string, and join the wreath ring to hang it. Simple cut-and-string makes, suitable for 5–6s.
Apple Candle Holders
The candle holders are paper rings that wrap around a jar. Colour the apple ring, cut it out and tape it around a jar with a tea light inside — an adult must handle the flame. Best for 6–8s with supervision.
Apple Butter Jar Labels and Dried-Slice Ornaments
Dress up a batch of apple butter with the jar labels, and hang the dried-slice ornaments in the window. Colour, cut along the dashed lines, stick the labels on the jars and thread the ornaments on string. Both are cut-and-string, suitable for 5–6s.

How to print (A4 and US Letter)
Print the PDF single-sided on A4 or US Letter, 100% scale. Colour first, then cut along the dashed lines, then assemble. String, jars, tea lights and a glue stick cover the supplies; an adult handles any candle. Each template is one page, so a classroom can print one craft per child or the whole pack per table.
