Holiday Potpurri DIY

This is something that I love making because it is so easy but also because they are so cute! They make inexpensive homemade Christmas gifts for loved ones.

I always hear the best things from the people I gift the jars too and it makes me smile thinking that I can make their home smell so special during the holidays.

Here’s me using some in my own home 🙂

What to Put Inside Holiday Potpourri DIY

You can really put anything you want inside of the jars as long as it smells good or looks cute in the jar! I put oranges, cinnamon sticks, vanilla bean, blueberries (gives it the red tint), rosemary, and essential oils.

Here are a list of other ingredients to try:

• cranberries
• all spice
• nutmeg
• pine sprigs
• apple cider
• ginger
• tangerines
• lemons
