{ DIY Kindling Packs }

The holiday parties are here. And you can't arrive empty handed.
You've got your bottle of wine. Now, kick it up a notch and bring this charming kindling to your host.

I gathered to following items from around my house.

A few pages of newspaper - opened up and laid out

I added dried rosemary to this kindling packet. But, you could use cinnamon sticks too.

A handful of dried twigs from around the yard.

Some dried pine cones are great in the mix too.

I rolled the ends like a giant piece of candy.

I pinched the ends so I could tie them.

I used burlap to tie the ends,

and some cotton rope on other packets.

I tucked several kindling packets into an old rusty bucket, along with some pine tree cuttings.

I added a cute tag.

Ta-da! You could make a ton in no time. Leave them by you door to grab at the last minute when your heading out to a party or get together all winter long.

Hello. What a great hostess gift, right?
