Here’s what you will need: pine cones, spray paint in colors of your choice, and twine or some other string.
Here’s what to do:
1. Spray paint the pine cones in the colors you chose. I did mine in yellow and white and then left some natural (you could also do Christmas colors for a Christmas garland). You will need to do several layers of paint depending on the coverage you want. I did about 5 coats.
2. After your pine cones are completely dry, just tie them onto your twine and you are done! You have a cute and easy autumn garland!
PS: The white owl vase in the picture is from the cute etsy shop fruit fly pie and the mustard felt flowers are from my own shop.

I've seen other pine cone garlands, but none of them were painted. I love the added color! Very nice.
I can't wait to make one of these for my porch. I love it! I would also LOVE to link to your tute if you didn't mind!
This is so super cute! I found it on pinterest and I'm linking to it in a "Simple Fall Decor" post going out tomorrow. www.apeacefulhome.net

Love this! How did you tie the pinecones to the twine? Did you use a smaller string to tie them to one line or did you tie them directly on the one piece of twine?
I think I will do red & silver for Christmas! How did you tie them?
you can tie the twine gently around one of the spikes of the pinecone, or use a dot of hot glue.
