How to make your own DIY Fresh Potpourri
Another fun holiday DIY coming your way today! This one is a really, easy, cost-friendly way to make your home instantly start smelling like the holidays! No diffuser, essential oil, or fancy candle required. I’m also making this SUPER easy to repackage and gift to friends, family, neighbors, etc. in a fun porch drop-off!
In fact, you probably already have most of these ingredients lying around your pantry already. The fun part about this is it’s also easily customizable! Add in our sub things like:
whole star anise
whole cloves
fresh grated nutmeg
vanilla beans
almond extract
sliced pears
a dash of red wine
