DIY Mini Pinecone Garland


The children in my class collected a whole bucket of mini pinecones on the playground for me.



 They know what I like!
I'm using affiliate links in this post so you can find products similar to the ones I used at no additional cost to you.

I used a needle and waxed string to string a 
green glass bead between every mini pinecone.

Red glass beads or cranberries would be pretty too!







The garland is about 4 feet long and perfect for decorating a wreath or giving a small space a little holiday bling.


An easy project to do while you're 
watching Christmas specials with the kids.

    I love it! The green with the brown of the pinecones is just perfect. And I love that your students collected them for you. =)
