Bleached Pinecones Basket

Tools and Materials
Large and small plastic bins
Bleach
Pinecones
Paper
Towels
Basket
Floral stick
Cedar sprig

Basket How-To
Water will cause the pinecones to close up; they'll reopen after drying. Working in a well-ventilated area, fill large bin with 1 part bleach to 4 parts water. Add cones; place smaller bin on top (to submerge the pinecones). Let sit for 24 hours. Remove; let dry on paper towels. Line basket edge with floral stick, a gumlike tape; press cedar sprigs into stick. Place pinecones in basket.
