We started by using hot glue to make a circle of pinecones, putting a progressively smaller circle on top of each previous one until we topped it with a single pinecone and had our tree shape. We then hot-glued paper boxes (wrapped like presents in fabric and ribbon), bows, jingle bells, and a few other ornament-type items to the niches in between the pinecones. It made a beautiful tree that lasted for at least a decade, before succumbing to an ill-fated move. I bet your kiddos would enjoy doing something like that. Of course, your boys would probably rather hold a contest to see how far various pinecones could be catapulted through the air using a homemade trebuchet or something.Inklinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02775312085301951675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14194867.post-37187494881212829072008-11-13T06:05:00.000-09:002008-11-13T06:05:00.000-09:00i love the napkin holders they are perfect!!
