WARNING: this is a messy DIY๐You may brake a few pinecones while cutting them to create the flowers and your fingers will get dirty with sap.
โข Make sure you collect a variety of pinecones and have good cutters or pruning shears.
โข Cut the larger, more open pinecones horizontally across the midsection. You should be able to get 2-3 flowers out of each pinecone. If they have too many layers of scales, simply peel off few from the bottom.
โข Start glueing flowers to the grapevine wreath base. If you want to use a metal wire heart base, you will need to wrap it with burlap or a Spanish moss like I did.
