Christmas creations from cones for children

Children love colors, and plain donuts might seem a bit boring. Use them to make cheerful green trees from pine cones, which will perfectly decorate not only the children’s room!

It will take only a few minutes to make and be fun for them. And you will have some time to drink a glass of mulled wine.

What you will need:

• a few pine cones
• self-hardening material
• yogurt cups
• liquid glue and a brush
• green glitter
• artificial snow
• hot glue gun
• colored beads of a larger size

Method:

1. Make low bowls from yogurt cups by cutting the sides of the cup.
2. Press the self-hardening mass into the resulting bowl.
3. Allow the self-hardening material to dry according to the instructions on the package.
4. Once the mass is arid, remove the crucible. Now, you have created the perfect donut stand.
5. Coat the cone on all sides with liquid glue and carefully sprinkle with green sequins.
6. Use a hot melt gun to glue the colored bead ornaments onto the trees.

If you want, you can also try other methods of decoration, for example trees stuck with pieces of cotton wool will look like snow.
