Pinecone Ornament
Apparently, I am almost a year late in making these pine cone ornaments, LOL! I never jumped on the bandwagon last November, because I really didn’t have any use for them. I did, however, love them when I saw them!
I was recently asked to make some ornaments for a Christmas tree that will be auctioned off for charity. The color theme for the tree is red and turquoise, thus the colors of this ornament
I didn’t really know what I wanted to do, so I went to the Splitcoast “Trim a Tree” gallery. That’s where I found these pine cones. I found the link to Amanda Sewell’s blog HERE for a great tutorial. Thanks, Amanda!!
I need a little bit of practice on these, and I think if I make another one tonight, it should go faster. I used red snowflake paper from Frances Meyer, and yummy shimmery turquoise flower print paper from KI Memories. Naturally, I “needed” to add some glitter, so I added dots of red and turquoise Stickles to the tips of each point.
I’m off to make some more ornaments. See ya later!! And Happy Labor Day!!! ![]()
