I love sharing beautiful centerpieces and decorations. Even if this it is made for the fall time, I still love it! Read below on the items you need to get started to create your own pine cone centerpiece.
Materials and Tools:
-Several clear glass cylinders
-Satin Ribbon
-Double-sided transparent tape
-Several small and large pine cones
-Several sweetgum balls cut in half
-Pillar candles
-Hot glue gun
Instructions:
Use several of the clear glass cylinders to arrange down the center of the table. Cut a length of wide of satin ribbon to fit around each cylinder, which will allow the ribbon ends. Secure the ribbon ends with double-sided transparent tape. Then create the pine cone ornament by first cutting several sweet gum balls in half using scissors. Remove the largest scales from a soft, open pinecone. Hot-glue pine cone scales on back of each sweetgum ball, starting in the middle and working your way out, making a snowflake shape. Use hot glue to attach the pinecone ornament to ribbon where the ends meet. Place a pillar candle in the middle of cylinder, and surround it with miniature pinecones.
