11. Pine Needle Tassels
This is one of my favorite DIY projects in this list. If you don’t have rope at home, you can use rubber bands or a string. Or if you want to take it to another level, you can dip the bottom of the needles in glue and then in silver glitter. There are so many ways to customize this decoration – it’s a must try indeed!
