DIY Pink Foiled Pineapple Print

Pineapples, Pink Foil, and Pink, Oh My! These are a few of my favorite things this summer. I’ve been slightly obsessed with pineapples and flamingos the past couple years as I feel they are the perfect summer decor item. A couple years ago I discovered how easy it can be to gold foil and pink foil items with Toner Reactive Foil; so I decided to put these two obsessions together for the ultimate summer print.

For this DIY Pink Foiled Pineapple Print project you need the following items:

• Picture to Foil
• Cardstock
• Laser Printer
• Toner Reactive Foil
• Heat Source (more on this later)

First, print the picture onto cardstock using a laser printer (this will only work if you use a laser printer).

Cut the Toner Reactive Foil and place it over the image

Now is where things get a little different based on your heat source. The simplest method is to use the Minc machine; however, if you don’t want to spend money on the machine you can use your laser printer to adhere the foil. I have a tutorial on how to do that here.

Since the paper is going to be 8.5×11 and frames are 8×10, trim the image to 8×10 size then place it in a frame and enjoy!

I absolutely love how this pineapple turned out, and the quote about how to be a pineapple is a great reminder throughout the summer as you enjoy the print in your decor.
