One of my favorite memories from youth group when I was in junior high was the year our teacher taught us how to make pinecone wreaths.
First, we went out one night and gathered hundreds of pinecones as a group. That night, we soaked them in big tubs. The next day, we took the shrunken pinecones and stuffed them into pinecone wreath forms. Left to dry out, the pinecones re-opened and the results were beautiful by the time we returned to youth group the next week.
I love to create decorations for my home using pieces of God’s creation, and kids do too! It’s a fabulous way to help your kids see beauty and the evidence of design.
