Cherry Blossom Pinecone Art
Jane and Sonja
If you want to find the best cherry blossom art, why not combine it with wonderful pinecone art?
- Pinecones
- Twigs or branches
- Snippers
- Canvas
- Chalky paint in White
- Acrylic paint in White, Light Pink and Dark Pink
- Paint brushes
- Tacky glue or hot glue gun
- Sandpaper
Turn your canvas over and paint the entire back of the canvas in chalky paint.
To get more of a distressed look sand the wooden frame of the canvas.
Using the garden snips, cut between the scales of the pine cones to make individual florets.
Start by painting each pine cone one solid color and leave the center unpainted. Alternate between the white and pint paint. Let dry completely.
Take the dried pinecone florets and blend in another color in the center.
Cut your twigs to fit into your canvas and use tacky glue or a hot glue gun to glue the twigs into place.
Once the twigs are securely in place, hot glue your pinecone florets around the twigs to make it look like cherry blossoms.
