Instructions
Pine Cone Succulent Garden Craft
Directions:
1. begin by applying the craft paint to both the tops and underside of your pine cones. You can decide which end of the pine cone will be showing and paint the appropriate end.
2. Create texture to your pine cone succulent by using various shades of green and yellow as we did. You may wish to paint the pine cone a solid color then use a lighter color to accent the tips of the cone. Allow to dry.
3. Fill your container with sand, dirt, or a filler of your choice. You can also add stones, faux moss rocks, etc.
4. Once the pine cones are dry you can place them in the container. Just press them in so they are secure. Arrange as you wish.
5. Your pine cone succulent garden is now ready to be displayed!
