Simplicity is beautiful. When decorating for the holiday season it's easy to go overboard with sparkly, bejeweled ornaments and loudly colored decorations. We set out to come up with a holiday DIY so you can create a chic, handmade decoration for your home with minimal effort.

What you'll need:
Pinecones
Wire Cutters/Pliers
Wire
Twine

Step One: Cut the wire into 2" pieces.


Step Two: Use pliers to insert the wire into the tops of the pinecones. Use a little hot glue if needed to keep the wire in place.

Step Three: Twist the wire around the twine tightly to keep the pinecone from sliding around on the twine.

Step Four: Decorate with your newly created garland!
