Check out our simple and natural technique forcleaning pinecones here.
After the pinecones have been cleaned and baked, soak them in a pail of water for 30 minutes.
double-check they are fully submerged in the water.
Youll quickly notice the pinecones will begin to close up making them easy to work with.
Continue adding more pinecones to the wire frame, working one section at a time.
Use the small and medium pinecones for the inner concentric circle.
Continue all the way around the wire wreath form.
Put the wreath aside and leave it to dry fully for 2-3 days.
As they dry, the pinecones will open naturally and wedge themselves to the wire form.
And there you go!
