Purple Lilac Posted September 25, 2005 Share Posted September 25, 2005 I would be also interested in any reply's. As I have lots of potpourri on hand, it didn't go over well for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candlegurl Posted September 25, 2005 Share Posted September 25, 2005 This is weird...I was just coming here to ask a potpourri question! Please excuse me for butting in. :rolleyes2 I plan on making scented rosehips with other stuff mixed in. My question is, do I scent them with straight fo, or should I cut the fo with something? Any help is greatly appreciated. I am itchin to get to it. TIA Stacy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LauraInNY Posted September 25, 2005 Share Posted September 25, 2005 I do my potpourri with straight FO. My sales for potpourri have been slow, but are just starting to pick up. You could make firestarters using the potpourri. That is how I make mine. They look really pretty too. You can use holiday cupcake holders for them. There are some really cute autumn leaves ones that I found at Michaels and JoAnnes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candlegurl Posted September 25, 2005 Share Posted September 25, 2005 Laura-Thanks for the answer...off I go to get started! StacyBTW, What a great idea about using the leftover potpourri for firestarters!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sal_gal48 Posted September 25, 2005 Author Share Posted September 25, 2005 I'm not familiar with firestarters -- you mean for chimneys? or barbecues? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LauraInNY Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 Here is a link to a thread from a while ago that shows a firestarter. Mine look similar to the ones in the picture. There are instructions in the thread on how to make them. They are really easy.
