Paint
Paint Brush
Glitter Glue (optional)

Method
- Collect the fallen pine cones from under the trees by the end of autumn before it gets all covered with snow.
- Grab different colors of paint and using a regular paint brush, give 2 coats of paint on each pine cone.
- Let them dry completely.
- Use glitter glue and beads to decorate (optional)
- Use them to decorate the home for Christmas or however you desire.

- Kids' paint works well on these pine cones.
- Always use glitter once the paint is dried completely. Else, the glitter will get the color of the paint.
