Can you feel it in the air? FALL! With its arrival comes a change in decorating… textures and natural elements. Today, I am going to show you how to create these beautiful pine cone flowers…
Pine Cone Flower Embellished Mason Jars
- 32 oz.Mason Jars
- Pine Cones
- Jute Twine
- Sueded Cording
- Circular Chipboard Shapes
- Round Wooden Plugs
- Craft Saw
- Glue Gun and Glue Sticks
- Needle Nose Pliers
- Strong Scissors
Let’s get started! First, you will wrap the mason jars. I wrapped two with braided jute twine. The other one, I wrapped with sueded chocolate brown cording. To braid the jute twine, cut 3 lengths of jute twine and tie together at one end. I estimated my length based on this very non-exact formula….
length around jar x number of times to wrap { I wrapped mine 5 times around } x 2.5 = cut length of jute twine {you will need 3 cut lengths to braid together!}

Gather your supplies including craft saw, needle nose pliers, and scissors!
Step 2:
Use your needle nose pliers and carefully pull out a row of pine cone pieces all the way around the cone. This will allow a space for you to saw the pine cone apart!
Step 3:
Very carefully, use your craft saw to cut apart the pine cone. You will be using the bottom piece as one of your flowers.
Step 4:
Carefully peel the pine cone pieces off. You may need to actually cut them off from the core of the pine cone with scissors.
Now, we are to the part where you create your beautiful flower. Simply begin with your round chipboard circle. Start gluing your pine cone pieces down along the edge of the chipboard circle.

I’m a little late finding this post but love it. I’ve got lots of jars and pine cones. Can hardly wait to make these. They’d still be good past Fall, even for holidays. Great tutorial also. Had to print it out.
