Make flocked pine cones with this easy tutorial using just Epsom salt and mod podge. This would be an easy craft to do as a group as well.
I have so many Christmas DIYs so you may want to peruse. This DIY Christmas advent is fun if you’ve got a Cricut you want to utilize.
Did you find some ugly small pine cones you don’t want to have flocked? Try tie dyeing with them. No really!
I am so excited for Christmas I could explode! At my recent expo, there was a nice couple selling huge pinecones and when I bought seven, my husband thought I had lost my mind. But 7 pinecones for $10 is an amazing deal!
This tutorial is so simple it hurts. I put together a video for you so you can see exactly what steps I used to get this beautiful, fresh fallen snow look!
What I used for my Diy flocked Pine cones
- Pinecones
- Epsom salt
- Modpodge
- Paintbrush
All you do is paint the mod podge on the tips of the pine cone, and dip the tips in your Epsom salt!

I bought my Epsom salt in bulk from Costco while making bath salts and I love the way it looks like snow.
