Quick And Easy Pinecone Ornaments
As the holiday season approaches, it’s a wonderful time to get creative with your kids. One of the easiest and most enjoyable activities is making homemade Christmas tree ornaments. A particular favorite among young children are pinecone ornaments, which can be customized with beads, glitter, and other embellishments to create unique and treasured keepsakes.
Involving your little ones in the ornament-making process not only fosters their creativity but also creates a sense of pride and ownership as they see their handiwork displayed on the family tree. This year, consider making some special pinecone ornaments with your kids that will become cherished family heirlooms for years to come.
Pinecone Christmas Tree Ornaments
Gathering pinecones can be a delightful and effortless process, especially if you live in an area where they are abundant. One way to do this is by taking a leisurely walk and collecting the necessary quantity. If you’re not fortunate enough to have pinecones readily available in your surroundings, there’s no need to worry – you can easily purchase them in bulk from craft stores at an affordable price.

To create these sparkling pinecones, you’ll need the following supplies: pinecones, craft glue such as Aleene’s Tacky Glue, ribbon or ornament hooks, and different colors of glitter – gold and silver or red, green, and blue. Here’s how to bring them to life:Start by laying down a sheet of newspaper to protect your workspace. Next, place the pinecones on the paper and get ready to add some sparkle. Using a small paintbrush, apply craft glue to the tips of the pinecones.
This will help the glitter adhere evenly and get into all the nooks and crannies. Once you’ve applied the glue, sprinkle your chosen color of glitter onto the pinecone’s surface. For maximum efficiency, consider using a separate sheet of paper for each color of glitter – this way, you can simply reuse any excess when it falls off the pinecone during the process.
Finally, let the glue dry completely before attaching a ribbon or ornament hook to the top of each pinecone and hanging them on your tree.

To create this festive holiday decoration, you’ll need the following supplies: pinecones, craft glue, small wooden beads for the head, white felt, gold pipe cleaners, black markers, and ribbon. Once you have all of these items, follow these steps to bring your angel to life.
Begin by cutting a small piece of gold pipe cleaner into a halo shape. Bend it into place and secure it onto the top of the wooden bead using craft glue.
Add some personality to your angel’s face with black markers – simply draw on eyes and a mouth.
Next, attach the headpiece to the flat base of the pinecone. This will serve as the anchor for your angel when hung on the tree. Simply apply a small amount of glue and press the headpiece into place.
For the wings, cut out small shapes from white felt. You can add some extra sparkle with gold glitter if you like.
Once your wings are ready, attach them to the back of the pinecone using craft glue.
Finally, add a ribbon for hanging and your angel is complete!
