To enhance the smell in your home, decorate for the holiday, or give someone a nice gift, make scented buds. Glue the spices to the pine cones using one of two methods, or using essential oils and no glue.

Steps

Method 1 of 3: Glue Spray Method

1. 1 Take ground cloves, cinnamon and other spices, pour everything into a dish and mix thoroughly.
   • Sprinkle the buds with a spice mixture with patchouli, orange, sandalwood, or cinnamon essential oils for a spicier flavor. Mix spices and oils thoroughly.
2. 2 Select the desired number of pine cones and heat on a baking sheet to open.
3. 3 Spread pine cones in one layer at the bottom of a large plastic bag.
4. 4 Spray the pine cones with spray glue. Be careful not to inhale the glue. If your house is poorly ventilated, then it is better to do it outside.
5. 5 Close the bag and shake thoroughly until the buds are mixed and spread again in a single layer at the bottom of the bag.
6. 6 Open the bag and spray the pine cones with the glue again.
7. 7 Sprinkle the spice mixture over the pine cones and shake the bag.
8. 8 Place pine cones in a container or baking sheet and let dry.
9. 9 Place the pine cones in a mesh or onion bag, then shake the bag thoroughly to remove excess spices. It is better to take this step outside so as not to litter.
10. 10 Pack the fragrant pine cones in a mesh bag in a plastic bag, then tie it with a nice ribbon. You can put spicy pine cones in the basket. Cover the basket with cellophane and then decorate it with a bow.

2. 2 Set pine cones on newspaper or plastic sheet. Use a brush with glue to spread the glue on the bumps.
3. 3 Place the pine cones with the glue on them in a plastic bag. Shake the bag to coat the ribs with the spices.
4. 4 Place pine cones on a newspaper and let them dry overnight. Present pine cones in a basket or hang them on the tree.

Method 3 of 3: Scenting pine cones without glue

1. 1 Mix Christmas essential oil with water in a spray bottle. You can also add cinnamon or clove oil if you want.
2. 2 Spray pine cones with scented water and seal in a plastic bag.
3. 3 Remove the buds after 24 hours. Scented buds are ready to decorate your home or you can give them as a gift.
   • Alternatively, place pine cones in a plastic bag with a few drops of cinnamon, clove oil, or Christmas essential oil.Seal the pine cones in a bag for 2-7 days, after which the cones will be ready.
