So the holidays have come and gone this year, and my house almost feels empty without decorations busting from the seams. I still wanted a little bit of winter flair so I decided to create a fun and festive Pinecone Winter Wreath using my favorite winter colors, silver & blue.
First I gathered my supplies:
- Grapevine wreath
- Pinecones
- Silver & blue picks
- Silver metallic spray paint
- Hot glue gun
- Crafting wire
- Silver ribbon
I attached the pinecones that I found on clearance from Michael’s using craft wire and hot glue. I made sure to completely cover the grapevine wreath with as many pinecones that would fit comfortably.
Once all the pinecones were in place, I spray painted the entire wreath in Rustoleum’s metallic silver.
Now it’s time to start adding the silver and blue floral picks that I got from Michael’s on holiday clearance. Normally prices at $1.29 each, I got these for 70% off!
I used my hot glue gun and craft wire again to make sure all of the blue and silver picks were securely attached to the pinecone wreath. I also added some silver ribbon to the top for hanging on my front door. And that’s it!
A beautiful silver and blue pinecone wreath to keep your door festive throughout the winter months!
Love it! Great job : )
Love this! What a beautiful idea!

This is absolutely gorgeous! I was trying to tell friends of mine that good Wintry colors for front door decor are white, silvers and blues. I must have had this wreath subliminally in my mind. Gosh, now I want to make one! :-)
Thanks John! I think the silver & blue makes me think of snowflakes and icicles :) LOVE it.
