Pine Cones

Today's craft we are using pine cones!  We picked out two pine cones on our way to the bus stop.  Hopefully, you will have an easy time finding one for this project.

Supply list:
Pine cone (s)
Paint (we are using green)
glitter (hooray!)*

*that only means one thing, better get out the vacuum cleaner

We painted the first pine cone a dark forest green.  Because the paint was gloppy (I'm sure thats a word) we decided to use the vineyard green on the second pine cone.

Adding the glitter.  Watch out!

Many thanks to Nicholas.  He had to take a few pictures for us.  We had green glittery hands and didn't want to ruin the camera.

By the way, Bella ditched me after all the paint and glitter.  Apparently there were more exciting things going on.

See you tomorrow!
