I love - LOVE - the pinecone brads from Eyelet Outlet. They remind me of when I was a little girl and would always "collect" pinecones and take them home with me, much to my mother's delight, I'm sure.
I think the pinecones look quite nice in the window box with the greenery that I made by sponging some ink onto a green Eyelet Outlet paper flower and then cutting a small section out of it and fringing it with a pair of scissors.
And look out the window - it's an Eyelet Outlet Sketched Owl brad.
