Scented pinecone recipe

[Cathy8]

I just found this recipe and thought I'd share. Could be a fun Christmas project.

Scented Pinecones

These make wonderful room fresheners. Can be placed on decorative plates and bowls or in pretty gift baskets and set around a room to freshen the air.

What You Need

* Pinecones
* Candle Scents, Perfume Fragrance Oils or Essential Oils
* Ice Cream Pail

Place your pinecones in a plastic ice cream bucket and add several drops of perfume fragrance oil or essential oil. Mix carefully to disperse fragrance. Cover and let sit for a few days to allow the mixture to "marinate".

Thanks! I love the cinnamon scented ones. I always buy a bag of those for my home, but this year I'll make them myself instead!

Pinecones dipped in scented & colored candle wax (a couple of coats, let dry between each coat) make a very pretty centerpiece when put into a bowl. I also use them for 'filling in' my Christmas gift baskets.
