Monday Love: Pinecone garland DIY





Happy new week flowers!
Hope you all had a delightful second of advent. It had snowed here and everything looked white and magical. Fitting top the winter atmosphere, i've created a little DIY for you, in case you're not yet finished decorating. Try this garland, made from pinecones, painted white, pink mini-pompoms and some nice ribbon.

Here's how:
You paint the pinecones white and let them dry
Tie them into a nice ribbon
and glue Mini-pompoms in between
At the ends, knot ribbon together so as to make a hanger
Finito! 

Idea and photos: Martina Voigt-Schmid

    Those pine cones were seen in plenty when I went to the Himalayas!! Pity I did not pick and bring home any... These are just beautiful, the way you transform them!! Have a lovely week Martina :)

    MARTINA! First of all, that pink and white is so HAPPY TOGETHER! AND I missed you this morning because I had a teaching job but I had to leave really early to get out of the snow! Driving today was very slow going.
