fun nativity

Things for this project...
- Pinecones
- platic forks
-old towels
-string
-small box
-old candle holder
- glue gun
-straw/string
I used big pine cones and just put an old towel around the top and glued it together. then glue string to the top. wrap the smallest pinecone in an old towl and glue it. glue the forks into the star pincone...


Pretty easy and fast.. may have few issues getting the glue to stick with the pinecones. just keep it up


You should have all these things around your house.
Have fun!!!

New Room...

 Things you need for this easy classy project!
- Glue gun
-3 large fake flowers from store usually run about 2-7 dollars. (large go a longer way then small
- 1you can get the cheap ones because you are going to cover it up anyway.
-Any ribbin, string, yarn to hang off of
-1 small picture hanging nail
-Hammer
I started with a straw wreath already wrapped in plastic wrap. I put a brown ribbin around it  but you can use any colors.

Adding flowers ramdomly around to give dimention and different colors. It is always fun to add a small accent color in there for the pop/wow factor.

You do not need the vinyl but i think it makes it just look so cute. after added all the flowers in the places i think look eye catching. then you can either put the ribbin around it of through the flowers of a big bow on top. It's just personal preference. I used a vase that was around the house added a few flowers in it. This is a very easy fast project.
