MAHOMET, Ill. (Chambana Today) — The Hive Honey Beetique in Mahomet, a honey-centric shop that sells artisan varieties and other bee-related goods, is holding a workshop later this month to end 2025 and welcome in 2026.

Pinecone Wishes: Special Intentions & Wishing Pinecone Workshop, is designed to help set your goals for the year ahead. Hive Honey Beetique, located at 1828 Patton Drive Suite 2 in Mahomet, will host this workshop, which focuses on crafting pinecones that serve as both fire starters and symbols of your personal aspirations.

“As we approach the New Year, it’s the perfect time to reflect on the past and look forward to the future,” the business said. “In this hands-on experience, you’ll dip your pinecone in beeswax, sealing your personal intentions within it. Your goals will be written on parchment, rolled up, and carefully tucked inside the pinecone while the beeswax is still warm, solidifying your wishes with each dip.”

The finished pinecone will stand as a symbol of your aspirations, and can also be used as a fire starter. Whether you choose to burn your pinecone in a ritual to honor your intentions or keep it as a physical reminder of your New Year’s resolutions, it will serve as a meaningful tool for manifesting your desires.

In this workshop, you will:

  • Dip a pinecone in beeswax, infusing it with your written intentions for the coming year
  • Write down your goals, wishes, or resolutions, and seal them inside the pinecone as it cools
  • Learn how to use your pinecone safely as a fire starter, creating a ritual to ignite your dreams
  • Receive guidance on how to use your pinecone as a symbolic tool to honor and manifest your aspirations

This workshop is a wonderful way to start the new year with focus, purpose, and natural magic. As you craft your pinecone, you’ll connect with your deepest desires and ignite your intentions for the year ahead.

The difficulty level for the workshop is rated as beginner, and is open for all ages 10 and over. Registration costs $15.
