I wish I’d had this recipe a month ago! But, I’m trying it now, using lemons, oranges, & grapefruit from backyard. I had to settle for ground cloves, but I jabbed in some cinnamon stick pieces to see how that works. I also added rose hips & some lavender I found as well. It’s in the oven drying now, & starting to smell wonderful. I’ll take a walk soon to look for pine cones.

At midnight and unable to sleep, I came in here to search the net again for (whatever). Decided to try my luck at Citrus Potpourri for some reason and read many links & instructions before yours. However, your instructions make easy sense on HOW to actually do it myself, without ingredients that I have never heard of and would have to track down. (one page had me go from link to link just to find out what some ingredient was). Thanks for using the K.I.S.S. method. (Keep It Simple Sam).

Suzanne, I love the Dollar Store too and all the Fred’s and Dollar Trees…LOL But, just don’t buy personal items there, such as toothpaste – they found things in it, like freon..make out of this country, if you get my drift. Knock -offs.
What a neat idea!!!!!! Not only PRETTY but practical and frugal and wonderful smelling…I love that! :mrgreen:

I think because I’ve had allergies for so long that my smeller doesn’t work well anymore – I always buy a live tree and others say they smell it but I don’t

My mom used to make homemade potpurri and the pomanders as well! She would wrap a ribbon around the pomander so that it could be hung.
