Pinecone Candle Holder

I wasn't going to craft today but after my daughter brought home some pinecones from the park, I had to make something with it! lol! Another decor for my soon to be Fall display!

 Material
pinecones, spray paint, the bottom of a soda can, glue gun and scissors

 Spray paint the pine cones

After it dries, cut the top of the pine cone and spray paint again. 
Cut the button of a soda can and trim around it.

 Glue the aluminium circle to the pine cone.

You are done!

    I love this idea! I'm slightly obssessed, ok, greatly obssessed with pine cones. I have them sitting all over my house - on my mantels in baskets, as lamp finiels, etc. I will def be making some of these! Thanks for sharing!

    Hi Chrissy-

    How clever and perfect for fall. I walk everyday and always look for pinecones to decorate my house with this time of year. I can't wait to make a few of these.

    These are great! They would work for Christmas too if your colours worked with your Christmas decor. I think I'll have to try making these.

    Found this via DSC - very cute! I have never really used soda cans in crafting - what do you use to cut them? Do you get sharp edges?

    This is a wonderfully creative idea and a good way to recycle both man and nature's cast offs. I don't mean to be critical, but I would never use hot glue on anything that has a flame as it just isn't a reliable bond and presents a fire hazzard if it will be lit. Please consider another adhesive or put two small holes in the candle platform and wire the pinecone and metal together. Thanks for letting me add my "worry wort's" two cents worth.
