This is the time of year when I do a lot more crafting than usual.
Once I smell the cinnamon scent of the holiday season my mind starts thinking up projects.
Such was the case with my scented pine cone wreath:
Yep, the little bags of scented pine cones were at the front of the craft store when I was there and I’m a total sucker for them.
I originally thought I would glue them to a flat, round wreath form.
Then I realized that I would need another bag of pine cones to help fill in some little gaps, so I searched the house for things I already had.
I decided to use an old black picture frame. It wouldn’t need so many pine cones and I wouldn’t have to paint it to help hide the gaps.
Then it was as easy as gluing the pine cones to the frame with hot glue. Easy peasy.
I glued pine cones to the front and to the sides of the little frame. In no time, my frame was all filled up and I added a green silk bow.
I figure I can use this little wreath for both fall and Christmas. Love that!
I hung it in my dining room so the cinnamon smell is near my front door.
I love simple crafts, don’t you?

This is such a cute wreath, I think the green satin ribbon adds a bit of elegance. Simply beautiful!!
LOVE IT Julie!! It looks so pretty hanging from your hutch doors!
That’s really cute! And I have pinecones and frames!
Love this idea! The shape really elevates the look. 🙂
love this and love the different shape that the frame provides. Good work!
So pretty and i can smell it now!…Just love how you used the frame as a base for a wreath!…you are the clever one!!!
Beautiful job as always Julie!
Simple crafts are my favorite! Your wreath looks so pretty; the satin ribbon adds a nice finishing touch. Pinning!
Oh, I am a real sucker for those scented pinecones, too! I almost fell for it the other day but resisted……today, who knows! I like the rectangular shaped wreath for a change.

Visiting from Funky Junk. Yes, I love simple crafts too and I am making this one. I think it’s adorable and I already have the pine cones and a ton of frames to choose from. Really love square wreaths too. Thanks for sharing.
I love the square frame and the easy peasy makings of the wreath. Thank you for sharing!
