Pine Cone Angel Ornament
Materials needed:
Medium sized pine cone
One 1/2" wooden bead
Two silver or gold foil leaves
One silver or gold pipe cleaner
Acrylic paint: flesh tone, black and red (or pink)
4" metallic ribbon or cord
Hot glue gun and glue sticks
Directions:
Paint the entire wooden bead with flesh
tone paint. Let dry.
Paint eyes and nose on bead with black
paint, paint mouth and cheeks with red paint. Let dry.
Glue wooden bead to bottom of pine cone
(the wide end).
Cut the pipe cleaner to make three
pieces: two 1/2" pieces and one 2" piece. Glue the two
1/2" pieces to the front of the pine cone, just below the
head bead. Glue so that they stick out from the cone to form arms.
Twist the 2" piece of pipe cleaner
into a circle and glue to the top of the head bead to form a halo.
The foil leaves will become wings. Glue
one to each side of the pine cone so that they extend out from the
cone.
Glue the cord or ribbon to the back of
the cone at the top to form a hanging loop.
