I absolutely love pine cones! They are the perfect decor item...neutral on their own (unless you add paint or glitter to them), they are 100% natural, and they will last from year-to-year if you handle them carefully. They come in a variety of shapes and sizes, look great individually, but also work well grouped in a bowl or container. I don't think Mother Nature has blessed us with a more diverse and inexpensive decorating staple than the pine cone.
If you are not a "crafter DIY type", you can simply decorate with natural pine cones. However, with even a little bit of creativity, pine cones can be easily transformed into bird-feeders or many other creative masterpieces.
Here are 12 ideas to inspire you...one for each month of the year! (Hint: Click the title link to be taken to that project!)
We would LOVE to see what you create with pine cones! Won't you please share your creations with us? Please send project details and photos via email to: shannon@wintergreens.com. Thanks!
