Crepe Paper Gold Pinecones Video Workshop
Pinecone Party
Pinecones, though we see them all year round, have become an iconic symbol of the winter holidays. They add texture and a hint of rustic charm to any space, and this next project is the perfect way to bring all that beauty indoors. Our Crepe Paper Pinecones transform a humble forest treasure into a gilded, elegant accent piece. Join Lia and Megan on Friday, November 21, at noon PT, where they’ll guide you through this project step-by-step as part of our Crafty Wonderland 2025 LIVE Workshop Series.

Our Crafty Wonderland LIVE Workshop Series is a weeklong celebration of festive creativity designed to inspire and connect makers everywhere. Along with our Crepe Paper Pinecones, you’ll also create our coordinating Crepe Paper Checkerberry craft for a thematic focus on this amazingly versatile material. These two projects pair together to create a stunning duo of natural elements — berries and pinecones — made entirely from crepe paper, perfectly capturing the charm of DIY holiday decor.
During our Crepe Paper Pinecone workshop, you’ll learn how to create your own double-sided crepe paper by laminating extra-fine gold crepe with fusible web. This simple technique adds structure and a subtle metallic sheen, making each pinecone feel not just handmade, but handcrafted. Once laminated, you’ll cut, shape, and curl your pieces into layers that build depth and texture, creating remarkable realism that you’ll be proud to display year after year.
While each finished pinecone is its own little work of art, they’re all the more stunning when clustered together. Once complete, add them to your tree for a touch of gold or gather them in a festive bowl for a unique, natural arrangement. No matter how you choose to display them, remember that even the simplest inspiration can yield the most beautiful results.
We’d love to celebrate your gorgeous Crepe Paper Pinecone, so share your creations using #MadeWithLia! Show us how you’ve incorporated these golden pinecones into your holiday décor, and let’s make this season shine with creativity and warmth!

Back to the Topany chance these will work with your heavy crepe paper that I have on hand?
Yes! I would not laminate them; I would use one layer. Also, stretch the crepe at least 50% before cutting to remove some of the toothiness. I do talk about this in the video, too. 🙂
What is the trick to cutting the crepe that has the fusible web? I used the canvas setting with more pressure and taped down the sides with scotch tape and ended up with a mess. Help please!
You can cut the double-sided crepe, pre-made or the DIY version using the rotary blade (do not use the fine point blade with crepe paper as it will tear), on the Cotton setting. Here is a chart we made for settings: https://liagriffith.com/cricut-cutting-chart/
Thank you! Just finished my first 2 pinecones and I’m in love!! Going to go cut more since you so kindly and promptly responded to me!
Yay! Share photos on how you use them, too. 🙂
Is there a svg for this? Excited to make it!
Yes! It is part of the download. I hope you can join us for the LIVE event too!
