Want to create incredibly realistic ornaments that look straight out of a designer catalog? These DIY acorn ornaments are a seriously cool project! While each one takes just under an hour, the resulting professional, nature-inspired decor is incredibly rewarding. They have a charmingly simple design that beautifully complements any holiday home.
The secret to the realistic look lies in the unique materials: you’ll gather XL dryer balls, 4″ paper mache eggs, and pine cones with fine scales to form the cap! Use hot glue to assemble the cap onto the body and add a small twig for the stem. These stunning DIY acorn ornaments look absolutely amazing nestled on your Christmas tree and make for wonderful, unique holiday gifts!
