Don’t you just love the way homes smell during the Holidays with spicy fragrances, and home cooking scents that inundate your smell receptors every time you walk into a guest’s house?
Beautiful, right? Well, of course, you want the same thing, don’t you?
Don’t you want people to walk in your home when you’re entertaining and say, “Wow, it smells divine in here!”?
I do! However, I don’t want to use chemical sprays, candles, or air fresheners, and I don’t want to spend all that money on them either…
…No worries! Use your food to make a fabulously scented pot pourri on your stove that will make your home smell scrumptious!
Using your citrus peelings and some spices in water on the stove can make you a fabulous pot pourri that not only freshens your home, makes you feel warm & cozy, uses up food peelings, is non-toxic and you can do it yourself!
Try this one out and experiment with other ingredients as well! Be sure to try out my Christmas Pot Pourri Recipe too!
