Make Your Fake Christmas Tree Smell Like a Real Tree

With all the allergies in my family, we’ve never been able to have a real Christmas tree. But I still love the smell of evergreen trees. If you do too, you can use this simple craft to make your fake Christmas tree smell like a real tree.

Even if you already have your Christmas tree up, just adding a few essential oil diffuser ornaments can make all the difference! We made ours look like Christmas trees using cookie cutters and some green paint — I love how they turned out.

Make Your Fake Christmas Tree Smell Like a Real Tree

Here’s what you need to make your fake Christmas tree smell like a real tree:

• 4 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup salt
• 1 1/2 cups warm water
• Drinking straw
• Green paint and paint brush
• Green floral wire
• Essential oil (you can use pine or Idaho blue spruce)

Mix flour, salt and water to form dough. Roll out and cut out shapes using cookie cutters. Use a straw or toothpick to poke a hole in the top of each ornament.

Add color using a paintbrush and paint while the ornaments are still wet. We used a paint brush to give our trees a fun effect.

Lay out on a cookie sheet and allow to dry for several days, flipping them every 24 hours.

Once they’re dry, add floral wire and a few drops of essential oil.

I love how the pine essential oil smells or Idaho Blue Spruce, and these ornaments are awesome for diffusing the smell throughout your home.

These ornaments kids can make would be a fun project to keep little ones busy during their time at home for the holidays.

New to Essential Oils?

Ha! Me too…awhile ago.

It can be overwhelming with so many oils & choices.

This exclusive package {available for a limited time} gives you everything you need to get started and the information you need to know what to do!

As a Young Living Independent distributor, I started with their AMAZING starter kit & then added a few things I thought you might like…

…like a super huge essential oil information manual. I use mine ALL THE TIME. It is a place you can look up information about each oil individually or find information by looking up the problem you want to solve.

…like an Amazon gift card for $20! You can use it for additional resources or accessories OR just whatever you want!

…like membership in our group’s private FB community. This is a great place to ask questions, get suggestions and find out how other people are using their essential oils. As part of my team, you can also choose other groups like our business building or blogging communities as well.
