The $1 Project pennies. It’s not as easy as you might think. 100 pennies doesn’t go very far, and they’re not a very versatile medium. We’d love to see what you’ve done with pennies. Show us yours at: #pennypincher @vintagekcmagazine on Instagram. W e’ve all pinched pennies at some point in our lives, right? So we issued this challenge: create some- thing with literally $1 ... or 100
“Decorated with 100 pennies, this penny pinecone ornament is an easy way to incorporate an industrial metal style into your fall décor. For the base, paint a styrofoam cone with metallic paint. Then insert a wooden dowel in the center, which func- tions as a stem (making it perfect for hanging). Finally, add the pennies. Try clustering a bunch of ‘pennycones’ in a centerpiece bowl for a more dramatic look ... you’ll just need a few more pennies!” Jamie, Kolorize kolorize.etsy.com
