Gather a basket full of pine cones. Try to gather the cones on a dry day when the scales are open. If the forest floor is wet, the cones will be closed tightly and you will have to wait a bit for the cones to open up as soon as they dry out.

Wiggle the scissors into the cone about midway

Cut the pine cone

Neatly cut some of the pine scales round to create a rose shape

Keep the top bit to add as tiny buds
