Here are some great things to use for making
your own potpourri:
- Pine cones
- Lavender
- Dried blooms from garden flowers such
as roses, delphiniums, Icicle pansies
(you can dry petals between paper towels
in a heavy book to flatten)
You can add things from the kitchen such
as:
- Cinnamon sticks
- Allspice
- Cloves
- Dried orange and lemon slices
- Bay leaves Mix the ingredients with
your choice of fragrant oil, without the
more delicate flower blooms. Allow to
sit in sealed jar for 2 weeks. Mix in
the flower blooms. Put some in a small
drawstring bag or fancy cello bag for
a perfect gift.
