Stovetop Potpourri Gift

Oranges were a MAJOR theme of my Christmas last year!  I loved every minute of it! So I decided to give a stovetop potpourri as gifts to my friends at work.  I heard a ton of great feedback - nearly everyone told me they used it and really enjoyed it - which is a definite goal of gift-giving!  And I had fun making the gift look cute!

Way before Christmas I did a flat-lay photo shoot and then had the photos printed and used them in my Christmas cards.  To make the instructions, I just used those photos and added the text on top and had those printed.

Here are the assembled bags - I tied the instructions on with twin and tied a dried orange slice with them and had wood beads on the end of the twine.

In each bag I put: 

2 cinnamon sticks

a cup of fresh cranberries

2 tsp of cloves

a whole orange 

a sprig of pine, taken from my tree

Note:  I told people to keep it in the refrigerator until use.
