Pink Cones for our Christmas Tree


 
Remember the acorns I picked from the beach before? I thought it would be good to turn them as decorations for our Christmas tree. And I loved how it turned out. I painted the acorns with pink since this is my favorite color and I thought it would be good to put a contrasting color for our Christmas tree.


The cones are too small for our Christmas tree so I just glued three acorns in a set. I just used a  pink poster paint and a small brush so I can brush the tiny holes and corners of the cones. I also used a pink glitter glue so it will give the pink cones a sparkling effect. I just used paper clips because it's easier to attach compared to a thread.


From brown to pink!


I just inserted the paper clips on the center of the three cones I've glued. This is very easy to hang on the Christmas tree that's why I preferred the paper clips more than the thread. Another reason is that it's harder to tie the thread on the cones and it would take a lot of time compared to the paper clips.


 
Tadaaaan! Here's the final output of my pink cones project. I hope you liked it as much as i did. =)

  2. It made me confused too. Sorry, I have to edit this blog post. All I knew it was an acorn but I tried to Google it and I found out that this was from a pine tree family so I guess it would be better to call them cones. Thanks for your comment.
