  2. Using tweezers or your fingers, carefully place the Metallic Leaf over the Gold Size.
  3. Softly dust off the excess leaf using a clean, soft brush and allow to dry for an hour. To add more sparkle, you can add some glitter. Gently dab areas of the pine cone you want glitter to stick to with a thin layer of Craft Glue and sprinkle the glitter over it. Allow to dry and the shack off the excess glitter.
  4. Space out your pine cones evenly and use string to tie up the top of them to create your garland. Now just hang it up in your home.
