2. Pine Cones

You can turn pine cones that you collect in your yard or at the park into a sweet garland. Just grab some twine, tie knots at the top of each, and presto: instant holiday cheer. String it across a doorway, over your mantle, or even outside over your garage door. Paint them or add some glitter for added holiday flair.

I also came across this cool pine cone chandelier idea you might want to try. The directions mention fake flowers, but you could easily substitute some dried flowers to make it an eco-friendly project.
