GLiTTeR PineCones

Continuing with the Ornament Creations

We gathered up some pine cones

Brought them home and then

"baked" them in the oven on 225

for a couple of hours because

they were wet and needed to be dried out,
which opens them back up.

DO NOT amp up the oven temp to try and hurry up the process,

for you shall haveth burnt smoking pine cones....

 Supplies:
----------------
*Pine Cones
*Glue
*GLiTTeR
*PiPe Cleaners or other hanging material
{we used Sparkalicious PiPe Cleaners,
but CoLoRfuL Yarn would work really well, too}

Once they are dried and opened up sufficiently,

all that's left is to twist the pipe cleaner to the top,

dribble glue on all sides.

Dribble,

Don't Drobble,

or you'll have great big blobs of sporadic GLiTTeR.

Shake pine cone firmly, but gently to 

remove excess glitter.

Set up to let dry.

Once it's dry 

add randomly to your tree for 

some extra sparkly goodness in the Yulemas spirit.
