Pinecone Place Card Holders
 |
What you Need: • Pinecones (as many as you would like to make) |
 |
What you Do: Step 1: Wrap the wire around the top of the pinecone two times.
Make sure that the wire is secure. |
 |
Step 2: Starting at the other end of the wire, use a thin marker to guide the rest of the wire to form 2-3 small circles. |
 |
Step 3: Make the wire circles stand up on top of the pinecone. |
 |
Step 4: Design the place card using pieces of paper. We cut the colorful paper into a 2-inch square and glued a 1-inch square of white paper on top (step not pictured). Write the guest’s name on the place card. Place the card in
the wire circles of the pinecone holder. |
