Ok today we’re going to show you how we mount these hooks on our pine cones for making ornaments. These eye hooks are really sturdy will last for a long time. These little hooks will not fall off and never fail you. These hooks are great and they have just about a million uses.
Drill Pilot Hole
The first thing I do is clear a little space in the middle here just so I have a little bit of room to work. Now if you look in there you can see the little nub that sticks out from the stem. That’s were I want to put my screw so what I like to do is bust that little knob right off. That leaves me a nice little place for me to aim my drill. I want to get my eye hook perfectly in that little nub. So I get my drill bit lined up and centered and then slowly drill it in there and make a nice little pilot hole just like that.
Install Screw
To install our eye hook we will just insert it into a the hole and twist. I like to use my little pliers and I will just screw this guy in. If you want you can add in a little drop of glue in the hole there if you’re really worried about it lasting forever. Once you screw it in there and you have it installed nice and tight you are all done. If you need a little bit of room you can always just take out a few more little pine cone petals. Now you’ll be able to do all kinds of stuff with these pine cones! You can make Christmas ornaments or you can just put little bits of string or ribbon threw the hook. It makes a real good sturdy way to fasten your pine cones for whatever craft you will be doing.
