My holiday copycat challenge started with an idea from a magazine, Pinterest, or another blogger, then gave it a personal twist. The point was to credit the inspiration and adapt the project for your own home.
The original collection graphic shows ruler and letter-tile ornaments, pinecone place settings, and hanging Christmas ornaments. Its 80+ label referred to a reader link party; that third-party collection is no longer included here.
My pinecone place-setting project
For my own version, I made painted pinecone place cards with faux holly. The project combines colorful pinecones with greenery and name cards for the Christmas table, with the option of giving each guest a place marker to take home.
I credited both Woman's Day and Good Housekeeping as inspiration. The Woman's Day pinecone favor pictured below was one of the starting points.
For more reader projects, the Christmas decorating collection includes ribbon angels, sweater wreaths, personalized stockings, and metallic pinecone place settings, with credit to each maker.
