Scented waxed pine cone fire starters
A practical gift for anyone with a fireplace — these light easily and fill the room with a warm cinnamon-pine scent as they burn.
You'll need
- Dry pine cones
- Old candle stubs or paraffin wax
- A few drops of cinnamon or pine essential oil
- Parchment paper
How to make them
- Melt the wax in a double boiler; stir in the essential oil once melted.
- Dip each pine cone fully into the wax, then let excess drip off.
- Set on parchment paper to harden completely.
- Package a few together with a note: tuck one under kindling to help start a fire.
