My dad was diagnosed with brain cancer this June and is currently dying. The way you love your parents, is the way I love mine. This has been incredibly heartbreaking to say the least.
I started a garden (inspired by you, of course) over a year ago. My landscape is lush and beautiful. My dad spent many hours in my yard talking about life and his love for his family. He was always impressed by all the things I built and grew. Your videos have peeled me off the floor many times and motivated me to continue working in my yard. Thank you for being a light during my darkest days 💜
-Michele
U have created natural therapy for ur dad that is really osm.
I'm also trying to build urban garden on the roof of our house 🏡
Michele, be strong! 💕💕💕
Best wishes Michele, may your garden continue to give you hope and strength.
🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏
HUGE hugs to you Michele!!
I know I've become an official Garden Answer addict when I get up early on a Saturday morning with just one thought in mind - I'm off work today and I get to watch Laura first thing in the morning instead of late in the evening! Now that is getting your day started off right.
🙌🏽 yess Steven! Same here 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Welcome to our club!
Me too...lol!!
I am a Garden Answer’s addict also!!!
Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
An hour for Laura is probably an all day project for me!
Lol. YEP!
That’s what I thought, as well! 😂
Right .. for all of us lol
Agree! 😂
Like a 2 hr sewing pattern 😂
My dogs and I watch your videos every morning before we get out of bed. They are a fantastic, joyful way to start my day! 🤗
Somewhere along the line, my dogs have figured out that when Laura says, "see you in the next one", it's time to get up. They jump out of bed, shake, stretch, and I do, too!!! Thank you for your bright smile and positivity!
That’s hysterical 🤣 ❤️
I had a cat that would come running to sit with me when she heard the trumpets from CBS Sunday Morning.
Now mine stay in bed with me until GA is over.
Pets learn quickly their human's habits.
Dogs are so smart🐾🐾
Same here! With my Maltipoo! When he hears, How’s it going, he snuggles in. We do not leave the bed until we watch to the end❤️🌳🎄
My mom & I watch everyday! We love your channel! It’s my daily motivator! Even though we are in Oklahoma and definitely not the same zone, I have learned so much! I’m also a therapist and have recommended your show to patients as a motivation and self care. Thank you for inviting us into your life each day! Thank you also for being such a positive, wholesome place for us in this busy, chaotic world!
Where in Oklahoma, Rachel? I moved from Laura’s neighborhood to Edmond Oklahoma about 5 years ago. It’s been quite a learning curve.
What a great recommendation!

Beautiful swag! I love how you used what you had. You make project easy and accessible for everyone. Did anyone else hear her say "rustle" and immediately think of Russell? 😺 He always seems to work his way into videos, even when he's not around. 😁
Spray your berry branches with hairspray to make the berries more stable and less likely to drop off. Hairspray also keeps the evergreens from shedding. ☺️
Can I get a link to your gardening channel?
my pine always died after a week. How do you keep it green and fresh
@@insideout8814 Spray with Wilt Stop. It will help quite a bit. Of course it will last longer outside (inside heat dries things out fast!) But my indoor decor has lasted a few weeks indoor with WS. Outdoor pots lasted most of the winter.
I love this! Imagine sticking a few cinnamon scented pinecone in it !
Or even a couple cinnamon sticks
But be careful about bringing them into the house, I got pantry moths last year from cinnamon pinecones. Maybe put them in a 0 degree freezer for a few days first to kill any bugs.
So pretty, and got my imagination going. So easy to take this idea and run with it, depending on what you have available. You could add different ornaments, bells, battery powered lights, etc. my mind is racing!! Thanks for that, Laura! I love what you do!!!💚💚💚❤️💚❤️
Yes!!! The options are pretty endless!
Such a beautiful touch, Laura & Aaron. I got a glimpse of Aaron's blue sleeve on the right side of the vid at 10:54. ✋ Hi Aaron...😄
Those a so stinking cool and so not what I imagine at the beginning and easy enough even I could do it! My inner faery was crying a little though because there was no glitter ✨ on the pine cone 😂 .... the options with the basic structure are endless and you could do the same thing with all kinds materials for any season or holiday.. I just love 💕 it! Laura is so creative and comes up with ideas for us that are attainable and not complicated.
Waking up at 4 a.m. on a Saturday isn't fun. Fortunately, I have a new episode of Garden Answer to watch to distract me from my racing thoughts. Thank you for your delightful videos. They truly provide joy when I'm stressed.
The swag is lovely. I think I'll make one for my front door this year. 🙂
The moment I say to myself, “Hey, I can actually to that!” I think I’ll get my family together and show off my/actually your crafting skills. 😉
Your timing is perfect. My swags finally gave up the ghost and I had to toss them. I was pondering what to do. Now I know. Thanks for the inspiration!!!
All my years and so many wreaths wags and garlands, I’ve never done with a single rope! Learn something new every day and they are gorgeous! Thank you for sharing! ❤️💚
Was anyone else distracted by Laura’s GORGEOUS new ring?!? 😍😍😍
Good morning, Laura ☕️ Those turned out beautiful. However, not as gorgeous as your diamond 💍!! Definitely going to attempt to make this! Thanks 🙏🏻 Have a Blessed Day 😊🐈
That ring caught my eye right off! A beautiful ring for a beautiful person!
I didn’t even notice it, lol!
Lol...I noticed that lovely rock !! Maybe an Anniversary present !!
I couldn't agree more with Laura, they definitely fit better on these door. The ribbon made it all. Can they tolerate battery operated Christmas lights??? I can imagine they would look spectacular 😍.
Morning!! Yes, they do!! Just wire the battery pack behind the ribbon and greens and you don't see it. I used the little teeny lights last year and they looked awesome! Happy holidays!!
Yep love the tapered structure of the swag on the French doors rather than a round wreath. It’s very pleasing to the eye.
Love all the decorating and Christmas videos! Wondering if you'll be using a real Christmas tree in the Hartley since there is no heat to dry it out ? What a fun family tradition that would be to pick out a tree for the Hartley!😄 Would love to see your parents house decked out for Christmas! I love the videos where she is involved...the two of you are so joyful and brighten everyone's day!
Wouldn’t it be special to have a live tree that is later planted in the landscape? Pretty expensive if it were a large one, but perhaps worth it.
I have a couple of pine trees in my yard and this time of year the cones drop profusely here in Georgia. What better way to use them than to make a simple swag for my front door. Thank you so much for this tutorial. I won’t have to buy a thing cause I already have everything I need on hand and more. Blessings to you and your family!
But how do you get bugs out? I live in GA, too, and tried it last year. I brought a host of tiny bugs in my house! Apparently they winter inside pine cones.
@@angeliadavis2080 I think you can bake them (?) at a low temp and it kills the bitty bugs but doesn’t destroy the pine cone
Anyone else blinded by the bling ring! Beautiful ring that I have never noticed before.
They look really good on the doors and a nice change from wreaths…well done Laura!
love how pretty it is. You could tie some jungle bells on some skinny ribbon and hang it in the middle of the big ribbon and Benjamin would get to hear it when you open the door.
You guys should do a live wreath/swag making so everyone can do it with you and ask questions real time. Sounds hard to do, but would be helpful ☺️
Well, Laura would be done in less than half 5e time of everyone else, so I don’t know if that would work.
Thanks, Laura, for the instructions for a fun project. I set up to do this project for me and my daughter with pine scented candles, hot buttered rums and Celtic music! So fun!
Tip for all of you out there who have very sappy cones like I do. I pick the cones up from our white pine tree (with gloves to protect hands from sap that hardly wants to come off!) I place them on cookie sheets with thick layers of newspaper under the cones and place them in the oven for a couple of hours at the lowest oven temp- 200 degrees in mine. After a few hours the sap has coated the pine cones like shellac and the excess has dripped off into the newspaper. The cones are sticky no more and beautiful with a rich, slightly shiny glow.
💜💚 Yess, there's something about nature and it's smells, I love pine scents with a lil cinnamon and nutmeg! Now I'm going to plant that plant that grows them red gorgeous berries!!! I love it!! I'm making somethin like this in my 2 pots out front I watched you do it one yr!!! Again love your bows Laura!🤗 man these are gorgeous I'd buy 2 !!!
If you’re collecting pine ones, soak in a vinegar/water mixture for about 30 minutes to kill any bugs. Bake in the oven at 250 for about 30 minutes until they are open. Once cooled, place in plastic bag and shake to release all the seeds.
Thank you for this tip !!
What a pretty idea! I like it very much! I also appreciate that pretty bling 💍 you have there! Was someone treated with a beautiful anniversary gift? Anyway, both are very pretty & thank you for sharing. I was also hoping you might do a bird feeding video this winter. I know you’ve done them before but I like it & am interested in how you will be feeding them this winter. Thank you 😊♥️
I think I would incorporate the greenery through out the swag and the berries thank you for the idea and the method of doing it
Beautiful!! To prevent fraying of cut ribbon I use a lighter and slightly melt the ends. It will seal the cut and you wont get any fraying :)
Or fray check! It's a super convenient bottle for cut ends, and drys fairly quickly too!
Simple but gorgeous !!! I can’t remember EVER seeing a pine cone swag before and I live in Wisconsin. This is a wonderful eco-friendly, inexpensive project that’s right up there on my list of Christmas to-dos this year. Thanks so much for introducing me to something new and beautiful. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your sweet family. 🥰
Me too! I'm heading up north for Tgiving week. Going to take long walks and gather pine cones!
11 months later I'm off the to find pine combs in Galveston Texas! Happy Holidays🌻✌
Hey Laura!! Thanks for the amazing and inspiring work! I’m a young gardener and you have inspired me to do great things to help the Agriculture Industry grow! I came across you 5 yrs ago and I’m 14 yrs old right now! You have inspired me to start my own channel Ultimate Gardening and teach my generation and ones ahead of me to get their hands in the dirt! Thank you Laura!💚✨🌿
I’m happy for you to have your own channel, but it’s bad manners to keep posting this information over and over to get more subscribers. If your content is good enough, you will get subscribers, it just might take a little while. Hang in there and so the hard work to get where you want to be, just like Laura and Aaron have done.
@@cynthiafisher9907 I’m sorry and I will stop! Thank you for letting me know!💚
Thank you Laura! I never saw this swag made. I love pinecones and collected them for years. while sorting my christmas stuff just yesterday i realized i have way too many and need to use them somehow. This is just perfect timing. I love it! Thank you for all you do. You're amazing.
Thank you for these. I have nearly driven myself crazy trying to do wreaths on a number of occasions. You are beautiful and smart and I wish you could give us the secret of your boundless energy! God bless you and your family this Christmas!
They turned out awesome! Reminded me of my floral design days . Looking forward to watching more holiday projects 🎄
So beautiful. Thank you for this tutorial. I now know what to do with pine cones my 8 year old granddaughter and I collected on a nature walk last week. This will be a perfect project for us to do together during the holidays. I can prep everything, make it into a “kit” and it will be pure joy. I’ll sort our pine cones, and collect any additional cones needed. I will also precut the rope and wire, and make the bow. We will want to make two. One for my home, and one for her home. She will love presenting it to her Mom and Dad! We may add some candy canes and a small ornament. Other than gathering additional cones, I have everything needed on already on hand. Thanks again. We love your channel and watch all the time!
If you have pine cones this is a wonderful way to utilize them. The swags turned out beautiful and they looked perfect on the doors!!! Maybe I'll go pine cone hunting today?! Have a wonderful day!!! Thanks!
Swagtastic! 😄
This came out beautiful!!! So I have a bunch of pampas grass I need to do somethong with and I think I could do something similar... you got my wheels turning now laura! 😆 love this! Thank you so much!
Oh Laura i am obsessed with this DIY! Definitely going to have to make a couple of these for my home! Thanks so much for the inspiration! ⭐️
Did anyone else laugh inside when Laura said "the flavor of your swag” maybe just me 😂 ♥️🎄
❤️love the project who knew how simple such a beautiful swag could be to make! Looks great on the doors! Exciting, Christmas is getting closer😁👏👍
Loved this project! But I also love your engagement ring!
Thank you for the step by step instructions. Have lots of pine cones to use.
It looks perfect! 👌 💚 only one thing I would add- spray little bit of white paint "frost" on cones...it would look nice against white door trim...
I have always made a swag with a base of greens. I love this variation.
So pretty and unique and I love them against the sun porch doors. Some call the "little pieces" of the pine cones, "plates" or "scales" 😊🌲🎀🪟🎄
Loved it! I am going to attempt 2 for myself. Love that it brings the natural outdoor element to your house. Thank you!
Thank you for this idea. I live in Southern California and I'm going to use unripened limes and passion fruit. I'll use palm tree berries branches.
I love the swags. I never saw anyone show how to make these. Thank you I will definitely make some.
I wish it would have taken her more time so I could have gazed at her diamond ring longer! BEAUTIFUL! Oh, the swag is spectacular, too.
I love how simple yet beautiful these swags are. Thank you for inspiring us all everyday.
Nice white table top to show all the details of your beautiful swag. I really appreciate the high quality of your videos. So I guess that's a thanks to both of you: Laura and Aaron!
Laura you’re so funny, when you said hanging a Christmas swag when there’s hollyhock still outside, you would feel like a duck out of water here in Australia I have blooms of every sort around, it’s late Spring beginning of Summer, and all the Christmas lights, trees etc. love watching your videos you’re my biggest inspiration every morning to get up and fuss around my garden, have a beautiful Christmas and thanksgiving with your beautiful family!!
Didn't know swags exist. Thanks for showing how to make one. Its definitely easier than a wreath.
So fun and festive! And you make it look so easy. Can’t wait to try this!
Beautiful! I'm going to do this as a project with our grandson who gathered all the pinecones in our yard :0) Just a note, my MIL taught me to turn the 'product', not the wire as you make bows and such, it makes it tighter toward the inside, and doesn't hurt your fingers as much! Try it!
Perfect timing for our wreath competition 🎄
Good morning! Love the swags. Easy she says, you make it easy and beautiful. You have a gift, flowers, planters, swags, whatever, you make it beautiful.
I really love this swag!! It looks so beautiful on the door!! 💕
I collect the white pine tree cones and spruce. I bake at 275° in oven for about 20 minutes on an aluminum foil cover cookie sheet.
Keep checking so you don’t burn them .
The pitch / sap heats up and makes a shiny hard coating
Easy to handle cones and all insects gone too.
Best wishes from Westport Massachusetts
Those swags turned out just beautiful, thank you for sharing this with us.
Showed this to my husband and he wanted to make one with me. We collected cedar greenery, holly, and pine cones from around our property in Florida! It came out great! Definitely couldn’t make the bow you did but we made it work 😍
Love these! Thank you so much for the tutorial! I was wondering what the back looks like since they may be on a window.
Beautiful, economical and environmentally friendly. Love💕the swags. I am so glad you showed the 3M Command hooks! When watching your video yesterday of redoing the corner area and you using nails for your pictures I was yelling “Use Command strips!” I use them to hang almost everything, especially temporary holiday decorations! I have a couple outside for wind chimes that continue to be used even 3 years later (surviving Chicago area winters!)
That was awesome! I often wondered how to attach pine cones to a swag! Thank you so much! Loved how they came together easily❤️🥰🙏
Love this project. We have a yard full of pine trees, so the pinecones are over abundant at times. Might start recycling them into swags. Thanks Laura!
Always great for the soul to do or watch Christmas & Easter types of projects!
Omg!!! So adorable. I despise pines,because they are so high maintenance.You have definitely opened my mind to a different perspective to them.Since I have 10 acres and my husband loves pines.I have had to grow to love them 😂Thanks so much
Ok, you have convinced me to try my first bow. I always found them intimidating. Thank you 😊
I have SO many pinecone and couldn't figure out how to display them...WOOOOHOOOO!! Thank you so much for this great project which I'll try tomorrow.
Gorgeous Laura🎄You always make these projects look effortless, which in turn makes me want to try them🤗
Wonderful tutorial! Would you ever consider doing a short video about how you take the decor down in January and take it apart to store and reuse? I'd love to see your system!
So look forward to watching you each day! Thank you for brightening our day!❤️
For the last 1+ yrs I've been watching your channel. I went from avoiding garden responsibilities at all costs to creating a balcony garden for 2 consecutive seasons and growing my housplant collection. Thank you for your inspiring videos. In return, i'll share a little bit of trivia with you - the part of the pinecone that you wrapped the wire aroung is called the "scale". Thank you Garden Answer!
It is LOVELY! I know what my project we’ll be today. Thanks for sharing! 🎄xo
I love them.❤ I go wandering and scavenging every year. It's the best part of decorating.
Love this video. Such a great idea and detailed instructions. Perfect!
So beautiful! Don't forget that any pine cones that you gather from outside - you want to bake them in the oven (put on double layered parchment paper so the sap does not wreck your pan) at 200 degrees for 2-3 hours. You do not want any little bugs that live in them to come into your house! I am absolutely going to make one of these - love it!
Great project🍁🍂! Love it! And.... your ring is so pretty💍!
I love your project again. I will make it, too. I did not realize that those Pine cones can really make into a beautiful X'mas swag. With all those natural materials from the garden, it's so unique and lovely to have natural X'mas decor in the house. Thank you so much again for sharing your videos.
Take care and happy holidays. 🥰💖🎄
Love it! I believe I can actually make this! Thank you so much for sharing. Have a fabulous day.
Laura if you wanted some color you could flock the pine cones with white paint slightly over the pine cones to give it a more winter look. Just a suggestion. Looks great I will have to try one
Good morning, GA friends! I haven't made a swag in years. Now, where did I pack my pine cones? ~ Lisa
Great project I winter in FL and put a tropical twist to the swag by replacing pinecones with driftwood, shells and palm frones for foliage. I'm so happy with it!
Laura- the swags are SO beautiful! I have always thought swags would be complicated to make - but once again you have shown that beautiful things can be simple to create. Thank you for another I great video.
What a beautiful way to use pinecones. Love this project!
Love the swags, they are a favorite of mine in decorating for the holidays.
That is so nice. Thank you for thee idea. Love everything you do
Beautiful work Laura as usual. Thank you 🙏
Just beautiful Laura! And simple to make! At least u make it look easy!! Lol..festive and fun! Love it!! ⛄️❄️🎄⛄️❄️🎄⛄️❄️🎄⛄️❄️🎄⛄️❄️🎄
They turned out just beautiful! I may have missed it, but what type of pine did you pick the cones from? I am a florist and we use a lot of cones but I rarely get to work with this "sturdy" of a variety. Thank you for always being so inspiring 💗
I think these came from the big blue spruce tree that tipped over in late summer. I remember her harvesting the ounce cones before they removed it.
Beautiful swags created by a very nice person whose ideas help to brighten up a wonderful time of the year. People like you are very inspiring in an ever Increasingly dark world. It's nice to see how you care to show people how to bring happiness with simple features that can give them a sense of cozy warmth. We need more of this in this world.
Love these swags, so pretty! It does appear you switched out the bow for a larger one with more loops? I like how much fuller it looks. Thanks for always inspiring 💚
Hi Laura...I made this pinecone swag over the weekend. It's a little smaller than yours as I only had so many pinecones. Was EASY and looks GORGEOUS! Thanks for all your ideas.
Greetings Laura, from Windermere, Florida zone 9b 🇺🇸
As a retired florist I love watching you. I think it was the 1st week in January before I got all of the Pine glue off hands, clothes, counters,etc!
🤣🌲🤣 but you can't beat the wonderful fragrances that you enjoy a you're creating. 👩🌾👍🌲
So beautiful Laura and so nice to see natural decorations as opposed to plastic
Wow! Who knew making a swag could be so simple? When I saw you use that rope as a base, I was like, “huh?!” 🤷🏼♀️🤔 and then in true Laura fashion you made it look so easy and beautiful! Will definitely try my hand at this! Did you get a new surface on your studio table? I don’t remember it being white. I loved how it made it easier for us to see what you were doing!
Love this project and so happy you can save them and just replace the greenery.
