Step 1First gather together all of the supplies needed inluding; various pine branches and cones, an empty candle tin, a sheet of plastic transparency plotter film, a small gift to go inside, scissors, clear tape, and a pen or marker (not showen in this picture).
-
Step 2Take the lid off of the tin, turn it upside down and trace around the opening onto the sheet of plastic with a pen or marker (I used a sharpie). Cut out the circle and put it aside.
-
Step 3Next take the pine needles off of your pine branches and fill your tin with them untill it is about a third of the way full or untill you can't see the bottom.
-
Step 4Place a few small pine cones and/or pine branches on top of the pine needles. Your tin should now be between 1/2 to 2/3 full.
-
Step 5Grab your cut out plastic circle and place on top of the pine needles and cones. You might have to trim it a bit to make it fit.
-
Step 6Use clear tape to secure your gift on top of the plastic.
-
Step 7If you want you can add additional pine branches or cones for decoration (you might need to tape or glue these down).
-
Step 8Check to see if the lid fits on top of all those layers and voila you're done!!! You now have a beautifully wrapped gift to give to a friend or loved one!
