- Hey Friends!
If you ever wondered how to properly clean pinecones for crafting with..well today's your lucky day because I am showing you how it's done! Get rid of the bugs, get rid of the sap!
It's super simple, you're going to need a large bucket to dump your pinecones in and fill half way with water. try your best to do a half to half ratio with vinegar and water. any vinegar will do. I added in a drop of dish soap to my mixture!
Let this soak (entirely soak) for 20 to 30 minutes and rinse off in the sink.
line foil on a pan (multiple pans if you are doing tons of pinecones at once) YOU should use foil to catch the drips of sap! Do not over bake these, they can catch FIRE so be very careful and check throughout the time they are in the oven!
Set the oven to 200 degrees and place in oven at 30 minutes. This will also reopen your pinecones so they look beautiful, it's also going to melt the sap off and or it might harden the sap onto the pinecones! Gives this glossy look!
Enjoy crafting with your clean pinecones!

#Christmas #HowToCleanPinecones - Zábava
Ok do not ever mix bleach and vinegar idk why I even would have said that or did that 😂 DO NOT DO THAT hahaha
like the natural one you made, really pretty.
Thank you! 😊
for anyone who doesn't know the short and stout pine cones are from red pines and the longer ones he baked are from white pines! :) just mentioning for anyone who is thinking of where to forage pine cones, white and red often grow near each other but not always
Very cool! I had no idea 😄 thank you for sharing this
I love the natural look! You did a great job!❤
Thank you very much 🫶🏼
Thank You! It can out better than the one from target.
Thank you! Glad you liked it
I definitely like your tree better, and I'm not just saying that because i like you better than Target 😀
Ellen!!! 🤣 that made me laugh so hard!!! 🤭
Well thank youuu
Thank you !....how pretty!
Oh wow! Perfect timing...I was just having a conversation about using pine cones in crafts and wondered how to clean them!
Oh wow that really is perfect timing! 🥰 awesome so glad I could pop in and help out!
I never knew you had to clean pine cones. I've collected pine cones in the past but I never even thought of bugs being in them. Oh my goodness! Thank you!
😲 oh my gosh. Well maybe you got lucky with those - the critters maybe froze but also how did you work with them being so sticky?
@@DavidOwenCreates I don't know. I guess the sun melted the stickiness off or something because you know I usually keep my pine cones in my shed which is like a thousand degrees. So maybe that's it that you know bugs get killed off and the sap just melts off
Ohh that's right you live in Florida!! Idk well oh well it worked and you got to skip all these steps 😅
Oh the natural look is absolutely beautiful!! You never cease to amaze me with your beautiful art!! Much love sweet baby and God bless!! Thank you so much for sharing!!❤️
Thanks so much Wanda!! 🙏 blessings to you and your family
Using that auto funnel is brilliant! That makes a Christmas decor piece that can be used for many years! I love the organic look!
Thank you so much! I appreciate your comment :)
I love this David!!!!!
Thanks 😊 💕
What a brilliant idea, thank you for easy tuition, especially cleaning the cones beforehand. Leo. UK.
Thanks for watching this video! Means a lot to me. Glad you enjoyed this. Happy crafting (:
I vote for the one you made. I like the natural look. The Dollar Tree pine cones topped it off. I will be making a Christmas tree myself. Thank you for the inspiration.
So happy to hear that!! Thank you for your comment. I hope you have fun and enjoy the process
your tree is great nice job
Thank you!!
Yay! Thanks for the video! Now I can't wait to make the pinecone bouquets.
Oh yay! How fun! Super cute and cheap!!!
The natural pine cone tree is really nice David.
Thanks so much Amy!
David it's so beautiful.
Thanks Ramona 🥰 means a lot!
Thank you!
Thanks for watching my video and supporting my small channel
How beautiful! Great job
Thank you 🙏🏼
DONT PAINT IT!!! It is so beautiful!!!! The little white comes really fast elevated the look!! I love it!!!!! It is way better than the target one! I have so many pine cones ( store bought lol) that I buy every year and never use. If I can I’ll give it a try. Hey I got the lights on the tree🎉🎉🎉🎉💖✌🏻
Ya I'm definitely not painting it! I love the natural look better on this project 😍 and the white little ones just popped in there I thought it was so cute! Thanks for your input!!
I am happy you got the lights up!
I always learn so much from your channel. This turned out great. I, too, pick up pine cones, but then I regret it, because of the sap. I, also, always end up getting a laugh from you, and you aren't even aware...
You said...I got these out of A yard.
I busted out laughing, I can see your neighbors, who have visitors over...
Visitor: you have some strange guy exercising in your yard.
Neighbor: Nah, that is just David, he is picking up pine cones.
😂 😂 😂
Hahaha! I didn't even think of that - I bet someone was wondering what I was doing 😅
@@DavidOwenCreates 😂 I live in a tiny town, where I grew up, they already know I am nuts. 😂
VERY NICE!! TFS💕
Thank You Rhonda 🥰
Love this❤
Thank you!!!!
I like the tree you made better! You did such a great job on it. I don't think you should paint it.
Thank you Rachel 😊 I didn't paint it - I left it! Yay
You don’t find pine cones in Tucson. My sister is visiting me from Florida and she brought me some to do projects for fall and Christmas. Love your Christmas tree.
Oh that’s amazing she brought you some to craft with! Yay! That’s exciting!
💕
Don't paint it! It looks better than the other one and goes really well with the rest of your Old English decor!
Looking good David👍
Thank you so much!! I love it natural and I did leave it 😌
Check out the difference in pine cones. Some never open to disperse their seeds unless there's a fire.
That’s interesting
Just read the comments. Looks like it's unanimous 👍😜😜
Like yours better!
Aww thank you!!
O please don't paint it.... its so pretty .... and original.... I am going to try it besides trying to sent them too..... thank you again for your help on how to do that too..
