  1. Paint the Pinecones: Use a small paint brush with flat tips. Pick any color you like. Paint as needed for full coverage. Let them dry completely.

  2. Drill Holes in Pinecones: With a drill, make a small hole about ¼ inch deep in the bottom of each dry pinecone. Ensure the hole matches the size of your wooden skewer.

  3. Wrap the Skewers: Take green floral tape and wrap it around each wooden skewer from top to bottom.

  4. Assemble the Flowers: Insert one end of the covered skewer into the drilled hole of the pinecone. Add glue if needed to secure it.

  5. Optional Glitter: If you want some sparkle, use translucent glitter. Paint it over the pinecones, shake off the excess, and let them dry.

  6. Arrange in a Vase: Place your finished pinecone roses in a vase and arrange them as you wish.
