last year we found a tree that had dropped these long pine cones. We let them dry out and used google eyes and sticks to glue horns and legs on them. They made cute reindeer.
We also turned a few into angels with feather wings and sparkels on each layer of the pinecone.
Keep us posted on what you find. Jade and I decorated our front door yesterday with a ton of corn from the website you linked us to.
Enjoy.

Our parents and grandparents favorite gift ever was placemats with kid's photos, artwork and sample writings on them. It's simply posterboard cut to placemat size. Put photos, writing, and artwork on one side and decorate the other side like you would a scrapbook page. Laminate. That's it. They are beautiful pieces of art!
