Simmering Potpurri that smells like Christmas
Today, I am sharing one of my very favorite Christmas traditions. Stovetop potpourri. The smell of this beautiful blend always reminds me of Christmas, it’s easy to make and you probably have most of the ingredients in your cupboard already!
Simmering Potpourri Ingrédients
Ingredients:
Pine Needles
3- Cinnamon sticks
Fresh cranberries
Cloves Splash of Vanilla
I used the Pine needles left over from a centerpiece I made here.
You could also use:
Orange slices Fresh or dried Rosemary Anise Nutmeg
Check to see what you have in your pantry!
Directions:
Simply add all your ingredients into a small pot, add water until it reaches an inch or two below the rim. Set the pot on your stove and bring the water to a simmer, then drop the heat down to low.
The cranberries will pop when they get hot.
I leave my Potpourri on the stove for 3-5 days adding water whenever it gets low. You could also use a small crockpot instead of the stovetop.
That’s all there is to it. Simple and easy and smells like going home for Christmas to me.
It’s pretty too!
That’s all for today,
Until next time,

Sounds wonderful!! Hope to make some soon.
