25 DAYS OF BLOGGING CHRISTMAS- DAY 9 | DECEMBER 9TH- SIMPLE BUT EFFECTIVE

This is one of the simplest but loveliest home-made Christmas tree decorations you can do- the pine cone. I made mine last year but I think it just looks so pretty and simplistic.

You will need:
- Pine cone
- Glitter
- Glue (PVA glue is best for this)
- String

How to make:
- Glue the area of the pine cone that you want the glitter to be on, I've gone for just the edges because it looks so pretty and simple but it can be done anywhere.
- Sprinkle glitter all over your pine cone (my glitter is purple but you rarely seem to get purple glitter) so that all the glue is covered (you might want to put down a piece of newspaper for this bit so everything is not covered in glitter).
- Shake off the excess glitter.
- Tie a piece of string round the top.

And there you have it, a quick, easy, and very simple Christmas decoration that looks beautiful.
