The easiest way to attach pine cones is to wrap a piece of florist's wire between the scales of the cone, encircling the base. Twist one of end wires around the trailing piece to secure it. For extra cleanliness and longevity, you can bake your pine cones before crafting. Tap your pine cones on a hard surface to remove any loose dirt and bugs.
