Does anyone have any ideas of how to decorate pinecones to look Christmassy? DD and I have some time on our hands before school go back ….
Thank you.

Gold glitter?

Pinterest has lots of good ideas for this kind of thing

Ooh, I'd love to make a wreath with mine but I've never done it before and I don't own a glue gun! I'll be curious to see if anyone had any ideas!

Last year I dipped ours in pva glue then sprinkled with flat white glitter. It’s not very sparkly so makes it look more like snow iykwim? Then wired them & used in garlands, wreath, around candles

I personally only white wash mine - maybe a bit of glitter along the edges if you’re doing a more glittery theme. I think it depends on what you’re going to do with them. I like quite simple arrangements around jam jars with candles with a bit of greenery but you could make something more decorative like hanging door decorations etc. Pinterest is your friend here.
