Nature is perfect inspiration for the upcoming holiday season! Pinecones are beautiful, inexpensive, and fabulous for both Thanksgiving and Christmas. They seamlessly transfer through both holidays – making your life easier! Here’s how I made mine.
Pinecone Garland
What you need:
Gold wire
Pinecones
Assorted neutral, chocolate, copper and gold ribbon
Wire cutter
Scissors
Here’s what you do:
1. Cut ribbon to desired length.
2. Cut wire into 4″-8″ lengths depending on the size of your pinecones, one per pinecone.
3. Wrap one end of wire length under top seed segments of pinecone, and then bend it upwards like a stem. Repeat for all pinecones.
4. Attach pinecones to ribbon.
5. Cover wire stems with bows.
