Deodar Cedar “rose” cone ideas

Hello. :) Does anyone have any ideas on what to do with the plethora of Deodar Cedar (cedrus deodora) “rose” cones I’ve been saving over the years? I thought it would be great to make something out of them to give as gifts at Christmas, etc. I’ve seen wreaths and things like that, but cannot find any examples from which to get a clear idea.

To get an idea of what a “rose cone” is, if you do not already know, check out the following 2 URLs and scroll down until you see a picture of the cones:

Thanks in advance for any ideas or websites to check out. I do appreciate any help. :)
