From the Designer:
"Part of the fun of the holiday season is making decorations and gifts to use ourselves and to give to others. We always enjoy making something new every year and one of our kid’s favorite things to decorate for our tree is pine cones. They love making different pine cone ornaments and there are so many different ways to make fun and different pine cone ornaments to keep and give and gifts. Pom poms are our current favs and these simple ornaments only take minutes and are so much fun to make or to give to someone special."
