Homemade Potpourri


 

 Ingredients

 all you need for this potpourri recipe is:

  •  Hand full of dried Orange slices see below for out to make
  •  Handful of small Pine cones 
  •   handful of whole cinnamon sticks
  •  half dozen star anise

 All quantities are approximate don't worry about using it exact amount I promise the potpourri will smell delicious regardless.

 you can eat the buy dried Orange slices from a Craft store make your own I made my own and it was quite straight forward the nice thing about making them yourself is that your kitchen will smell amazing while the orange slices are drying.


 drying Orange slices

 slice oranges crosswise into thin slices about 4181 tik approximate 5 mm
  press slices between paper towels or kitchen towel to block away excess juice
 play slices on rack in oven and drive for 3 hours at 440 degree Celsius all 120 degree Celsius if Pan forced check on them regularly to make sure they don't burn
 oh so you can place the orange slices on top of radiators for a few hours after baking to get the last drop of Monster out with no fear of burning the slices.


 how to make potpourri

 If you're making potpourri for yourself just put all the ingredients in a bowl and lead the wqrm spicy scent waft  around the room don't be surprised if it makes you hungry it smells a bit like Christmas pudding

 If you are giving the potpourri as a gift example as part of a gift basket a Christmas hamper then it looks nice wrapped in a Cell open bag tight with some raffia or Ribbon on this one I also attached a little cinnamon dough which smell lovely itself too
