Elegant, Frosty Centerpieces

Looks delightfully icy, doesn’t it?
This one of those projects that makes a big impression for a fairly small amount of work. It’s as easy as it looks:
- Gather twigs, pine cones, and glass vases.
- Lightly spray paint the twigs and pine cones white. You’re not trying for full coverage, it is better if some of the natural coloring shows through.
- Let the paint dry completely.
- Fill each glass vase with an arrangement of twigs or pine cones.
So easy, and so brrrrrrr-illiant!Plus these arrangements don’t wilt or require any tending and, if stored carefully, can be used year after year.
Of course, the first thing you will need is a large supply of twigs and pine cones. You might ask your resident gardening and walking clubs if they would be willing to help gather some. Then talk to the crafting circle to see if they will help with painting and arranging. Before you know it, you will have exquisite community-created centerpieces.
