DIY Fall Pinecone Centerpiece
Supplies
- 2 Pieces of Craft Wood (12 in x 2.5 in)
- 12 Normal-size Pinecones
- 9 Mini Pinecones
- Acrylic Paint (Brown, Orange, Olive Green, Cranberry, Gold)
- 3 Glass Candle Holders
- 3 Mini Leaf Shaped Tea Light Candles (I bought mine at the Dollar Tree)
- Hot Glue Gun
- Paint Brush
Directions
Step 1
Glue the two pieces of wood together side by side with hot glue.
Paint the top and sides of the wood with brown paint. There is no need to paint the bottom underneath.
Next, paint the pinecones in a variety of colors. We used orange, green and cranberry paint colors. Then paint the tips of the leaves with gold.
You don’t need to paint the entire bottom of the pinecone as it will be glued to the base and not shown.
Glue the candle holders to the base, spacing them out evenly on the wood.
Arrange the pinecones on the base to decide what type of pattern you are looking for. Once you are happy, then lift each up each pinecone and glue to the base.
Place a tea light candle in each candle holder.

How do you get the pine cones to sit flat on the board. Do you cut the bottom of the cones to make a flat surface? If so, how do you cut it?

Alison, many pinecones have a flat bottom, so I try to find those. If you cut the base off, it would make the pinecone fall apart. You could always gently press down on the pinecone to flatten the base without cutting. However, if your pinecones aren't perfectly straight that's the beauty of this natural arrangement: imperfection in nature leads to beauty!
