Pinecones are so natural, cozy and durable that I can’t name a piece that would be more perfect for fall and winter décor. Leaving them as they are or painting or glittering them is a cool idea, and then you just need to arrange them as you like. Grab a beautiful vintage stand or a cool bowl and fill it with pinecones, pumpkins, fall flowers, leaves, pomegranates, moss and so on. You can go for only pinecones, just paint them somehow, glitter and add a candle. You can also create a wonderful table runner of pinecones and leaves. Pinecones will give your table an adorable natural and rustic look, suitable for any occasion and holiday. Besides, pinecone arrangements in many places around your house.
Choosing the Right Pinecones
When selecting pinecones, look for ones that are clean and free of bugs. If you gather them from outdoors, bake them in the oven at a low temperature to kill any pests. For crafting, larger pinecones can make a bold statement, while smaller ones are perfect for filling in gaps or creating a more delicate look. It’s great to mix them in your arrangements.
Stands and Bowls
Choose a base for your centerpiece according to the style you want: a clear glass vase will be fine for many styles, though it looks more modern than anything else. A vintage porcelain stand or a silver tray will be a nice fit for a vintage tablescape, a wooden or dough bowl is ideal for rustic spaces. Think out of the box and go for a cloche, a jar, a glass bowl or any other piece that you like.

DIY Tips For Making Pinecone Centerpieces
Think outside the box and add some personal, creative touches to your centerpieces. Here are some cool craft projects you can make:
- Enhance your pinecone centerpiece with a few drops of essential oils like cinnamon, pine, or orange for a cozy, inviting aroma. Sprinkling ground spices like cinnamon or cloves can also add a festive scent to your display.
- For a frosted effect, brush the edges of the pinecones with white glue and dip them in Epsom salt or white glitter, creating a wintery touch. You can use spray paint too.
- Transform pinecones into charming flowers by painting the tips in various colors.
- For a whimsical look, tie pinecones with ribbon or twine and hang them from branches or chandeliers, adding a cascading element to your décor.
- Create mini pinecone trees by stacking small pinecones in a cone shape and gluing them together. Decorate these tiny trees with small beads or buttons as ornaments for a festive touch. Such tree would be perfect in the middle of any centerpiece.
- Pinecone candle holders are another great idea; simply hollow out the center of larger pinecones to fit a tea light candle. Ensure the pinecone is stable and place it in a dish for stability.
