A simple holiday decoration that brings a little of nature’s beauty indoors, this project is easy enough to do with the kids and can be personalized with paint, glitter and even scent!

Things you’ll need:
Pinecones
Craft Glue
Clothespins
Books or boxes

Things to do:
1. If you want your pinecones decorated beyond their natural state, now’s the time to do it. Paint them, dip them, glitter them or add a yummy scent to them then allow the pinecone to dry before proceeding.

2. Break the stems off of the bottom of the pinecones to create as flat and even a bottom as possible.
3. Apply a dime-sized dot of glue to the top of a clothespin and firmly press the bottom of the pinecone in, making sure it’s centered.

4. Use the books or boxes to help keep the pinecone centered and in place and allow the glue to dry thoroughly before moving.
