How to dye pinecones

Pigment is recommended for pine cone coloring:

1. propylene (generally, hand-painted clothes and shoes will consider propylene, which has strong adhesion; But the drying speed is fast, and the shape is more demanding. If you want to finish painting what you want at one time, it is recommended to make a draft; In addition, the viscosity of different brands of propylene will not be very different by testing the viscosity on some cardboard first. Before you start painting, test the viscosity of the pattern that suits you. )

2. Marker/marker (hand-painted clothes and shoes are also commonly used, and the details are great, but they may not be as good as acrylic in plastic media)

3. Paint (DIY products generally don't use this, and the high smell and concentration are the difficulties)

4. Gouache (with poor adhesion, it will be washed away when it meets water, and cracks will appear after a long time; But it has high controllability and rich colors. If you plan to change the pattern in the future, you can consider this. )

5. Watercolor/watercolor pen (it's okay to draw on paper, regardless of viscosity, but the color saturation is weak, which is inconvenient on plastic)
