Scented Pine Cones

Scented Pine Cones

Ingredients

  • 6 pine cones
  • 3 T cinnamon

    • Directions

    1. Preheat oven to 200℉. Line a large cookie sheet with aluminum foil. Spread the pine cones evenly across the foil.
    2. Bake in the oven for 40 minutes. Remove and let cool completely. (little bugs and critters can be hiding in the pine cones, so baking them is a good way to keep the critters from spreading in your house).
    3. Use a small paintbrush to apply white craft glue or Mod Podge to your pine cones. This can be watered down a little if it seems easier. Get it on the “leaves” of the cone and down in the crevices.
    4. With your glued-up pine cones standing upright on foil or paper, sprinkle cinnamon all over them.
    5. When the glue is dry, shake gently to get off excess cinnamon.
    6. Place your pine cones on a plate or coaster or in a bowl or basket to have that wonderful cinnamon smell wherever you want it.

    Notes

  • If you’re using a large cone, you might want to do it a section at a time so the glue doesn’t dry before adding cinnamon.
