How to quickly and easily decorate a house for the holiday at no extra cost – easy-to-follow ideas for adults and children.
Crafts from cones with your own hands
Gift wrapping. The pine cone can easily replace a festive bow and create a winter mood.
Christmas wreath. As a basis for such a wreath, a wire frame wrapped in grass, spruce branches, green tinsel or ribbon is suitable. As a decor – gifts of nature: hazelnuts, peanuts, cinnamon sticks, walnuts, cones, dried orange slices. The result is a beautiful and pleasantly scented decoration that will fill the house with the aroma of the holiday.
New Year’s composition. To create such a decorative group, you only need imagination: combine candles, cones, spruce and pine branches, Christmas balls and tangerines. So that the composition is pleasing to the eye and uplifting. Just be careful with the fire; it’s best to place candles and cones on a flat dish.
New Year’s picture. We paint the cones white with a spray can, glue them to the frame of the wreath and place them in the frame – the New Year’s picture is ready!
Christmas tree. To make such an unusual tree, you need a soft but stable cone-shaped frame. The cones are put on needles and stuck into the base. The higher, the smaller.
Christmas potpourri. A traditional Christmas composition of cones, twigs with berries, cinnamon sticks and oranges, studded with carnations (such fragrant balls are called “pomanders”).
Christmas tree decoration. A gilded cone, suspended with a ribbon on a Christmas tree, is as simple as everything ingenious.
Napkin ring. There is a place for cones on the festive table – they can be sewn onto a ring made of fabric to decorate a napkin, placed in a glass vase, or simply laid out on a tablecloth in any order. In this case, the cones can be painted with gold or silver paint.
Figures. The best idea for New Year’s leisure with children: recalling kindergarten skills – turning cones, acorns and twigs into dogs, woodsmen and bunnies.
Gilded cones. To paint buds gold or silver, you need a spray paint can, which you can buy at any craft store. Such cones and small Christmas tree balls in a glass vase make a nice composition for a coffee table or a mirror in the hallway.
New Year’s pendant. No comments.
A basket of cones. A wicker basket filled to the brim with pine cones looks very impressive. And if you also decorate it with a glowing Christmas tree garland, the basket will become simply magical!
Garland. The cones are tied together with a rope and decorated with fancy ribbons.
Candlesticks. You can place small cones, nuts or acorns in a glass candlestick and place a large candle in the center.
