Crafts using watermelon seeds are relatively inexpensive and do not require many supplies to get started. So after the family watermelon seed spitting contest, save those seeds!
Watermelon Beads
Turn those watermelon seeds into watermelon necklaces and bracelets. The key to stringing watermelon beads into jewelry is to string them while they are still wet, but not slippery. Consider alternating cantaloupe or squash seeds to add additional color.
Paper Plate Watermelon
A paper plate watermelon makes a colorful decoration for any refrigerator. This simple craft only requires white paper plate, red and green paint, watermelon seeds and glue.
Watermelon Seed Mosaic
Kids of all ages (as well as adults) can show their creative side by creating a mosaic with watermelon seeds. Use a piece of cardboard, construction paper or outline of a coloring sheet to create a mosaic.
Watermelon Seed Music Makers
Kids love noise makers and will enjoy making watermelon seed ones. Use a white paper plate and color or paint the outside, fold the plate in half and staple the edges. Add enough watermelon seeds to make noise and then finish stapling.
