If you’re going to decorate outside for the holidays, why not make it eco-friendly and multipurpose? Tree Pittsburgh hosts Sapling Saturdays, and this weekend’s event is an edible ornament workshop for kiddos. This make-and-take activity uses pine cones, bird seeds, and other natural items for crafting hanging adornments.
And if you can’t make it to the event, here’s a tutorial for how to make them at home. Spruce it up a bit and use cookie cutters to create different shapes!
