because your house smells funny, that's why

I made these cute little Christmas potpourri bags for some friends recently and thought I'd share the recipe with you in case you need a last minute hostess/teacher/mailman/asst. to the regional manager gift.



I wrapped these in squares of cellophane (approx. 20"x30"). Inside, I put:

1 small green apple
1 small red apple
1 small orange
10 whole cloves
3 star anise
a chunk of fresh ginger
3 small sticks of cinnamon

You can buy all of these in bulk and save a ton of money. Each bag cost me about a dollar.

I also added these instructions:


Then I just wrapped it all up and tied with a ribbon!

I have some on the stove right now and it smells SOOOOOO GOOOOD!!!!
