nARTure Tuesday: Pinecone Garland

It’s nARTure Tuesday! An easy, festive nature art activity for all ages this time of year is a pinecone garland. Take a nice nature walk where there are coniferous trees. Collect as many pinecones as you will need for your garland (you might want to think of where you want to hang it before you start collecting). Use twine, yarn, or strong string to tie the pinecones onto the garland. We wrapped the string under the cones then double tied it tight. You can also add citrus peels cut to shapes! Now you have a beautiful, good-smelling decoration for the winter, sure to bring about memories of making it!
