Mom Bakes Pine Cones on a Cookie Sheet for This Brilliant Reason

Instructions:

1. Clean the Pine Cones
   • Soak the pine cones in water for about an hour. Preheat your oven to 200°F (93°C).
2. Bake the Pine Cones
   • Place the soaked pine cones on a baking sheet and bake them for 30 minutes. This step helps to open up the pine cones and dry them out.
3. Infuse with Essential Oils
   • After the pine cones have cooled, transfer them to a Ziploc bag. Add 30 drops of your chosen essential oils to the bag. Seal it tightly and shake well to distribute the fragrance.
4. Allow to Absorb
   • Let the pine cones sit undisturbed in the sealed bag for one to two weeks to fully absorb the fragrance.

By following these simple steps, you’ll create beautifully scented pine cones that add a touch of nature and a burst of delightful aroma to any space. Enjoy your aromatic DIY project!
