Frosted Pinecone Ornaments

I’ve always wanted to make simple pinecone ornaments to hang from my Christmas tree.

I fantasize about decor that I can make each year with my kids as a tradition and once the holidays are over I can dispose of them and not worry about storage.

I found these pinecones on the ground by the local college. I collected them and decided to make some crafts.

After quickly spritzing them with some white spray paint and letting them dry shortly (I never have patience!). I took them inside

Used some Dollar Tree jute rope and cut off small strips and folded them

Then simply made a slip knot

And glued the knotted end to the pinecone bum!

So cute and simple!
