Gather your paint stir sticks and the wire form to create the snowflake frame.
Weave six of the wood paint stir sticks into the frame to create the arms of the snowflake.
Break the other three paint sticks into six 4- 5" pieces.
Arrange the small pieces in the center of the wire frame on top of the paint sticks into a hexagon.
Hot glue these pieces in place.
Spray paint the entire frame with the white spray paint.
Hot glue a small amount of Spanish moss onto the frame.
Lay out your small pinecones in the center of the frame to create a pattern similar to mine. This will help you figure out how many pinecones you will need. I used 50 small pinecones in total on my wreath.
Lay out your larger pinecones to determine precisely how many you need. (I used a total of 30 on my wreath).
Using a small paintbrush and some white acrylic paint, give these pine cones a light coat of white paint and sprinkle them with glitter while the paint is still wet. You could also use white spray paint for this process, but I have better control with a paintbrush as I did not want to fully cover my pinecones in paint.
Allow your cones to dry for a few hours.
Assemble the Snowflake Wreath per the below instructions.
Use a little bit of hot glue to attach the pine cones in place, starting with the inner ring.
Reinforce the pinecones by wrapping the wire spool around each pine cone and attaching them to the frame.
Adding Special Touches
Add smaller items to fill open spaces when your beautiful pine cone wreath is finished.
I used pinecone flowers made from pinecone petals and a few small cypress pods.
I painted them white, added glitter, allowed them to dry, and then hot glued them to the wreath in a random pattern.
