Ribbon on Pinecones

On Monday, I baked my pinecones and on Tuesday I added some sugar and silver spice (post coming soon).

Last night I dressed them up!

Here’s what I used:

Drill / with drill bit

Eye Hooks

Awesome pinecones

I used a drill bit that was the same diameter as the threaded area on the hook.  Pre-drill the end of the pinecone, about half the distance of the threaded area of the screw.  Now you’re ready to add the hook.

I used an assortment of ribbons.  

I am in love with Peacocks.

Hopefully my tree will reflect that ๐Ÿ™‚

I added bows,

Pinecones are easy to please, they don’t mind what you add to them.

    1. Love this post Debbie! This method looks a lot nicer then glueing the ribbons and bow to the pinecone. I’m going with this method and subscribing to your blog! Thanks

    4. Debbie, I can’t wait to glam up my pinecones. Leo picked up some really large ones from a neighbor’s yard. So glad you posted how to insert the eye hook. It’s going to be a pinecone Christmas around the cottage! Your pinecones are going to sell like hot cakes!

    6. I’m so happy you posted this. I’ve thought about doing this countless time and even collected some beautiful large LONG pinecones for the project and couldn’t begin to figure out how to fasten the ribbon on safely and gracefully! Your tip on baking them was also news to me. I hate sticky! Thanks Deb for this great idea and many others I’ve gleened from you along the way. Happy Holiday Season!
