I'm featuring three different ways to dress up your plain old pinecones in unique ways! Some are more time consuming and messier than others, but all yield great results. These techniques all revolve around a snowy pinecone look. I hope you enjoy this video tutorial and if you have any questions please let me know!


If I had to pick my favorite technique for spicing up pinecones, it would have to be the one using fake snow! I think it adds a really fun texture and it captures the light beautifully. I also like the idea of filling a whole vase full of snow dusted pinecones. It would make a beautiful center piece! Plus, if you use the cinnamon scented ones you'll have an amazing smelling room.


Once all of my pinecones were decorated, I started to put together the center piece. There are so many different ways you could put these pinecones to use. I thought a center piece home decor item would be great for any room in the house. Any vase or container will work! Just add a bow to your container and pour in the pinecones! A very simple, yet effective way to spruce up any room.


I hope you've enjoyed this fun holiday DIY! I think it is a really fun way to do something special with pinecones for cheaper than trying to buy them. Custom is always better! Thanks for stopping by!

Better Homes Cinnamon Scented Pinecones

Spring is in the air, sort of kinda, depending on the day at least. Today I am here to really get you into the spring spirit with a very cute and inexpensive DIY! These adorable miniature birdhouses are a dollar or less with a coupon from your local craft store and they come in a variety of styles to choose from. Let your heart pick its favorite and then get out your paints!


For this bird house I decided that it would look so cute in this Lilly Pulitzer pattern of roses. I first started off by painting a base coat of this blue in the shade skjdfb by sfkbksg. You may need two coats depending on color and quality of the paint. Let them dry completely before moving on to the next step! The other colors I used in this DIY are white by Joann's, candy pink by Joann's, green by Applebarrel, and metallic green by Martha Stewart.

Today I have a fun craft that anyone can do. This would be a great project to do with your kids or with your whole family on Thanksgiving! I can picture it now sitting around the table and passing out markers and the leaves, but now I'm just getting ahead of myself.

To start off I have been dreaming about decorating my dorm for Christmas since I bought this mini Christmas tree on clearance over a year ago.
