We love making potpourri especially in the fall and around the holidays to help the house to smell amazing! My stepmom, Tricia, seems to always have it going in the cooler months keeping the house nice and cozy 🙂
These are some of the things we like adding to our potpourri:
- orange slices or orange peel
- cranberries
- coffee beans (you only need a few!)
- apple slices
- allspice berries
- apple cider
- cinnamon sticks
- whole cloves
- star anise
- nutmeg
- vanilla extracts
You can also add things like:
- essential oils
- pine
- lemon slices or peels
- dried fruit
- dried lavender
- grapefruit slices or peels
- tea bags
- extracts (vanilla, almond, peppermint, orange, etc.)
- rosemary
- cardamom pods
You can make it in a pot on the stove or in a crockpot on low, just don’t forget to add some water every couple hours.
