I was inspired this year to create a classy yet simple tree. The only ornaments I used were these sparkly pinecones that I made myself in just a few steps. Our tree turned out even more beautiful than expected with these gold beauties!
What you'll need:
- 30 pinecones
- 1 can gold spray paint (or any sparkly color you fancy)
- 30 screw hooks
- Wire or 30 Christmas Tree hooks
- Newspaper
Step 1: Stack pinecones close together on newspaper to get more bang from your paint.
Step 2: Spray pinecones, dry, rearrange, and then spray a second coat.
Step 3: When cones are dry, screw hooks into the strongest part of the top.
Step 4: Add wire hooks to attach to your tree.
Step 5: Arrange and Enjoy!
Tip: I used a traditional Mayan skirt for my tree this year. You could use one of your own!
