Bronze Pinecone Ornaments

Add a touch of the outdoors to your miniature tree with bronze pinecone ornaments. Lay a handful of small pinecones on newspaper. Use metallic spray paint to add color and sheen to the pinecones. Once dry, add a wire ornament hanger or string to the top of each pinecone and hang from your tree's branches.

Acorn Ornaments

Acorns are a beautiful way to bring organic flair to your mini tree. For a less-is-more approach, add glue to the acorn and attach a loop of string. To add a bit more pizazz, spray-paint the acorns in hues of white or metallic.

Whistle Ornament

By attaching string to a vintage whistle, a standard toy becomes a decorative element that can be hung from your tree's branches. The whistle can also be used as party favors for holiday guests and presented on mini trees near the entryway.
