Here’s a fun and easy pinecone gnome craft idea for kids, that is simply perfect for the autumn season!

Craft Supplies:

PINECONE PRINTABLE – on our landing page
White Cardstock Paper
Brown Cardstock Paper
Scrapbook Paper
Crayons, Markers or Coloring Pencils
Pencil or Pen
Craft Scissors
Adhesive

Directions:

First things first, grab the free “pinecone” file {listed above in the supply list} and print it out on either white cardstock paper or brown. The choice is yours!
If choosing to print out the free file on white cardstock paper, go ahead and use your choice of coloring material to color in the pinecone design however you like.
Now we are ready to trim out the pinecone shape from the paper.
Discard excess paper when done cutting.
Next grab a piece of white cardstock paper and your pencil.
Lay your child’s hand FLAT on the paper and trace around it.
When done tracing, trim out the handprint design on the paper. This will be the beard for your gnome.
Finally – cut out a small oval nose shape, as well as a large triangle hat from the remaining pieces of paper.
Now you are ready to assemble it all together.
Start off my gluing down the white handprint cutout onto pinecone design {right along the edge.} You want the fingertips facing downward on the paper. Ultimately, the pinecone is his body.
Follow up that step by gluing down the triangle hat on the palm of the handprint cutout.
To finish off your Paper Pine Cone Gnome Keepsake, glue down the oval nose in the center of it all.
Now you can stop here or add any other embellishments you see fit, to give it a creative spin.
Then display your handprint gnome pine cone paper piece proudly for ALL to see!!
