30656Jerri, your pine cone ornaments are beautiful! I have the handout directions that I picked up at Jo Ann's a long time ago but I have never gotten around to making any. Now, after seeing yours, I'll definitely have to try making some! Hugs and *'s, D

They are fun to make and once you have done a couple its alot easier. Just thought others might like the idea for gifts for next year. Something you can do while watching TV.
360643Yes, I made some and still use them. Your's are much nicer than mine, though!

They are so pretty and unique aren't they. I really enjoyed making them. Did some for the Grandkids in other holiday ribbons and they still have them all.

These look great. I did make a heap of them years ago for my neices school fete & haven't done any since. Unfortunately I didn't get any photos. I like the look with the two different ribbons.

They are fun to make aren't they. I did each one different. Some had 3 different ribbons. I love pinks, burgundays so alot of mine were done in those colours. Did a whole tree in pinks and burgandys, but didn't have a camera to take any pictures the

These are so much fun to make and you can do them while watching TV, so they pass the time.

Wow, your good Shirlene: Thanks for your help. I knew I could count on you.
The first one is the link I added. I just had a hand made info sheet when I made mine, but this is much better.

All I did was a search and found these - glad to know the 1st was the one - and the last one - at the end of the video shows it pretty good, too - Hehehe!
211079I did the styrofoam type ornaments with the straight pins and beads/ribbon/sequins. Have never seen the pine cones and yours are really cute.

Thanks Shirlene:
I keep running out of space.after the /
winter/pinecone-ornaments.html.
Try and Google: Mattandsharie pinecone ornaments. Let me know if it works.
211079I purchased a small kit long time ago but never got to it. Your pinecones look good.
37638I may still have the pattern if anyone is interested in making them.

I just checked and can't find it. I am in the process of packing up to move in the new year, I did google and found lots of places that show how to make them. I will see if I can add the link.
I should have checked before I offered the pattern. This is a good one, but if you just google: how to make pinecones with styrofoam eggs and ribbon it gives you a lot of sites.

Thank you. They look so pretty on the tree, but I just hung a few on my mantle as I am not home for Christmas this year, so not putting up a tree.
