Inspired by...Pine Cones

Planning a fall or winter 2012 wedding?  Then this post's for you! With only a few weeks left of winter we thought we would share something we are inspired by to use in your wedding decor for weddings at that time of year... pine cones!  They can add such a great touch, and there are so many unique ways to incorporate them.  In fact, I used pines cones painted with glitter around the holidays for my husband and I's Cleveland Reception along with birch pots and hericombe berries.  Photos from the decor at our winter reception will be up later this year, can't wait to share with you all!  So check out some photo inspiration we've selected for you below... as you will see the possibilities to get creative are endless! Have ideas of your own? Share them with us!
