Simple Rustic Christmas Decor Just Add Pinecones

First Add Pinecones

 

 

I’ve had these giant pine cones for months! My daughter’s future sister-in-law used them in her wedding and my thoughtful, crafty daughter thought, ‘Mom would love these!’

She Was So Right

Two bags full…sounds like a song! I stored them away knowing that I would incorporate them into our home’s Christmas Decor.

Start With Rustic Country Living Fair Finds…

I love these small zinc cups! They have so much potential. I lined them on the rustic wooden bread tray…then added three large pinecones. They look like little trees.

Simple Steps to Decorate Zinc Cups with Large Pinecones

  • weigh down zinc cups with pebbles or decorative stones – about an inch thick layer
  • Cut Green Styrofoam rectangle into three cubes (Dollar Tree)
  • Shave off sides of styrofoam with dull knife – size it to where it is just below the rim of the zinc cup
  • press styrofoam into cup.
  • make sure Pinecone is flat on the bottom by removing any part that points downward. Drill hole at center of Pinecone with small thin screwdriver.
  • Insert green floral pick into hole in Pinecone – about 1 1/2 to 2 inches. Cut floral pick to be about an inch short of depth of styrofoam.
  • Insert Pinecode with floral pick into styrofoam

Place Large Pinecones Around Your Home
