We’ve been having so much fun turning nuts and pinecones into Christmas ornaments, we thought we’d add one more to the list: painted peanut squirrels! Last year we turned mixed nuts into llamas, snowmen, and Christmas trees and these squirrels are ready to join the party! Squirrels love nuts and seeds, so it’s a little bit funny that these ornaments are made of one of their favorite snacks. I guess you really are what you eat!
Giving these little guys a pastel makeover is easy as can be with a few trusty bottles of Folk Art Acrylic Paint. You can literally make a whole rainbow of painted squirrels to decorate your tree with this year! See the full step by step instructions below.
