How To Create a DIY Pinecone Curtain

Step 1: Hang the Curtains

The obvious first step is to switch out your curtains with some white or ivory colored curtains if you don’t already use that color in the room. You will need two curtain panels for each window, one for each side.

This is a great time to clean your every day curtains as well. (Make sure to check the washing instructions on your curtains to see how.)

Step 2: Hang the Pine Garland

Find the center of your pine garland piece.

Bend a paper clip into a double sided hook shape.

Hand holding paperclips bent into a hook shape.

Hook the pine garland in the center of your curtain rod between the two curtain panels.

Hooking pine garland onto the center of a white curtain.

Drape the garland on either side of the curtain and hook it behind the edge of the curtain rod on each side, creating two U shapes on the top of the curtain. The rest of the garland should hang on either side of the outsides of your curtains.

Step back and make sure that the U shapes and the edge pieces of garland are even.

Adjust accordingly.

I used one long strand of pine garland that I cut into 10 foot pieces. This was a good length for the size of my windows.

Step 3: Add the Pinecones

Tie clear fishing line around each pinecone, leaving a little line on the end.

Bend another paper clip into a double sided hook and tie one end of the paper clip onto the fishing line. Try to tie it as close to the pinecone as you can.

Hand attaching paper clip to pinecone with clear fishing line.

Trim any excess line with a scissors.

Hook the other end of the paper clip onto the pine garland.

And you are done.
