In kindergartens and schools, contests are often held for the best craft from natural materials. Why not make a hedgehog out of pine cones and a plastic bottle. Thanks to the master class, you will be able to create an original product.

Of course, a child cannot do without the help of an adult. It is best to do the work with the whole family. This will allow you to spend time with benefit and in good company.

Preparing buds

The buds have an amazing aroma. With their help, you can create unusual compositions. Cones look attractive in glass vases, baskets, wreaths. But before starting work, the material should be prepared. Otherwise, the craft will soon lose its attractive appearance.

In addition, the bumps give off gum that can ruin things.

Preparation of material for work is as follows:

1. We collect cones. In this case, you should pay attention only to whole, beautiful specimens.
2. We place the collected material in a sealed bag, tie it tightly, and put it in a dark place for several days.
3. After 2-3 days, we take out the cones from the bag, pour them into a container with hot water. Be sure to add dishwashing detergent to the water. Leave in solution for half an hour. At the end of the allotted time, rinse them with water, put them on a newspaper.
4. Once the buds are dry, cover them with varnish.

You can get to work and create original compositions. Such a natural material will retain its attractiveness for many years.
