Open the bag and spray the cones again. Add the mixture to the cones, close the bag and shake well. Place the pine cones in a large bowl and let dry. Store the cones in a mesh bag; cover the mesh bag with a clear plastic and a ribbon.

Hot Chocolate Mix in a Jar

In a bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups of skim milk powder, 1 1/2 cups of white sugar, 3/4 cup unsweetened cocoa and 3/4 cup non-dairy creamer. Blend well. Place the mix in a glass jar. Create a label that states hot chocolate mix with these instructions: Add 3 tablespoons of the chocolate mix to one cup of boiling water and stir well. Place a cute ribbon around the jar.
Natural Body Scrubs
-
You'll need brown sugar, sea salt, carrier oil, your favorite essential oil, food coloring, short mold jars and blank bumper sticker labels. Create one body scrub designed exclusively for men (sea salt) and another for women (brown sugar). Mix 2 cups of brown sugar with 1 cup of carrier oil, add eight drops of essential oil and one drop of food coloring. For the salt scrub, repeat the process, except you'll replace the brown sugar with the sea salt.
