Introduction: Pinecone Christmas Tree
In this intractable you will learn how to create a Christmas tree out of a pinecone. (The perfect gift or decoration for the Christmas season.)
Supplies
Materials:
-Pinecone x2
-Cork
-Cardboard
-Blue & yellow acrylic paint
Tools:
-Glue gun
-Pencil
-Rubber
-Scissors
-Paint brush
Step 1:
Start by warming up the hot glue gun and leave it to the side for later.
Step 2:
Cut the cork in half with scissors.
Step 3:
Next, take the yellow and blue paint and mix it together on a scrap piece of paper to make green paint. (If you already have green paint then skip this step.)
Step 4:
Draw out two stars on the cardboard using a pencil. Then carefully cut them out with scissors.
Step 5:
Take the warm hot glue gun and glue the cork to the bottom of the pinecone. Then glue the cut-out star on the top of the pinecone. Wait for 1-2 minutes for the glue to dry before continuing with the next step. Repeat this step for the second Christmas tree.Â
Step 6:
Take the green paint and paint the sides of the pinecone using a paint brush. After that, clean the brush with water then paint the star with the yellow paint. Repeat this step for the second Christmas tree.Â
Step 7:
If you have glitter, pompoms, or any other decorations that you want to use then you can decorate your Christmas tree as you wish (this last step is optional).
