Walking into the store the other day, I caught a big whiff of cinnamon. The smell of cinnamon is one of my favorite things about the holidays. And the store had just put out the big bags of cinnamon scented pinecones, so I knew I had to grab some to use as Christmas decor this year.
We have a fake tree, so I thought it would be fun to decorate it with a few of the cinnamon scented pinecones so our house would smell delicious for Christmas. Simple crafts are my favorite and this one is no different!
Supplies
pinecones
glue
glitter
foam paintbrush
hot glue gun
ribbon
All you need to do is brush on some glue to the tips of the pinecone, sprinkle on the glitter, let it dry, and hot glue on the ribbon for a hanger. That’s it!
This would make such a great kids craft…a little messy, but I’m sure they would love to pick out the glitter and ribbon colors.

I love it! So simple and pretty! Thanks for sharing. I might have to try this with my 3 year old.
Simple yet very pretty!
That pinecone is so cute and simple. I have about a bazillion of them littering my backyard right now. I should have my kids collect them and do this craft with me! So nice to meet you through 2 Uses Tuesday!
I’m crazy about cinnamon. I add it just about everything, especially this time of year! Thanks so much for linking up at Talented Tuesdays!
