"Hi! I'm Karen for Expert Village. Now I'm going to show you how to make this quaint wishing well watermelon. For our wishing well watermelon, we want to choose a long water melon and we're going to stand it up tall like this. Now, we need a good base to stand on so we're going to cut the bottom. I think I'll use that for the bottom. We'll cut a nice flat platform. Sometimes you need to check it a few times to see if it looks good. I'm going to trim that a little bit more. Now we're going to take our water soluble non toxic marker and mark off our design for our watermelon for our well. We'll start about here and that will be our well. Then the arch for out well will come up straight over the top like this. I'm going to include the stem of the watermelon in there and straight down the other side. Then make a very even about an inch wide line all the way down on both sides. Then as even as possible, all the way around. And go all the way around. Now we're ready to cut our watermelon."
