Directions:
- Prep Your Pinecones: (If you use pinecones you purchase at a craft store, you can skip this step.)
- If you’ve gathered pinecones from the great outdoors, you’ll need to bake them in a 200 degree oven for one hour to remove bugs and open up closed cones.
- Line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil first, as sap will drain from the cones.
- Allow them to cool.
- The Process:
- Pour 1/2 gallon of hot water into the bucket.
- Add 1 cup of the colorant of your choice, and stir until dissolved.
- Add pinecones to the mix.
- Be sure to add only as many as can be completely covered by the solution.
- Soak for 8 hours or overnight.
- Remove the pinecones and set on newspapers to dry completely – at least 3 days.
- Now your pinecones are ready to burn! Simply add them (one at a time) to your fireplace and watch the colors appear.
- Tips and Precautions:
- You can make several batches of different colors, but don’t mix the colors in a single batch.
- Burn only one color of pinecone at a time.
- Do not use colored pinecones on cooking fires or BBQ grills.
- Always use common sense and caution with open flames.
