They take about 2 weeks to shrivel up completely, but when they're finished I think they look cool!

-
Peel your apple and carefully push it into a pencil or paintbrush.
-
Sculpt features into the apple such as eyes, nose, mouth etc. The more bizarre your design looks, the better it will look when finished.
-
Add extra bits of detail if you wish. I used black peppercorns inside the eyes and grains of rice for teeth.
-
Leave your finished apple somewhere warm (I left mine on the kitchen windowsill)
-
After about a week, the apple will be shrivelled up on the outside, but still soft and squidgy on the inside.
-
And after two weeks it should be completely finished.

If you're pressed for time, you can make the shrinking faster by baking the apples, too!!
