Lovely! I’m super into decorating for fall with un-traditional colors and these are perfect for that!
Quick question, did you bake the pinecones or anything after bringing them inside? Curious about the pinecone prep! π
Hopped over from the link party! π
April Hoff says
Hi Megan! No, I didn’t bake them. I collected them on walks this fall. They sat in a coffee cup until recently, so they just dried out over time! π
