Henryk Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 DW wants some for work so I'm going to try Stone Stew South as suggested. I thought we'd just put it in one of the prim tin plates, but she wants an enclosed container for work. I have seen some of them - those glass globes with a wire mesh cover. (I can see how they would be good if you have cats/dogs too). Trouble is, they are so modern looking.Has anyone come across any prim-type potpourri dishes that have a cover on them? Any other ideas? I was thinking of a wide-mouth mason-type jars decorated a bit, but wouldn't know where to get the covers, and I really don't think those smelly jelly type lids would allow enough scent out.TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Accents Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 Maybe a square mason with a little tulle or netting over the top? Lacey stuff might work too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is one of our candle jars but it could work for potpourri well.http://gcnv.com/wst_page5.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lacey stuff might work too.Yep - just found this: http://www.maryjanesfarm.com/SimplyMJ/articles/column46.asp (1/2 down the page - I'd probably use a wide jar or container and skip the lights or else use those cold LED-lights - I'd be too nervous to use the regular ones - though I guess that would throw the scent better) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobinInOR Posted November 10, 2006 Share Posted November 10, 2006 A friend of mine does those canning jars w/ lights - she had one on all day and the potpourri never got very warm at all. I was worried too but it seemed OK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
