The Easiest Homemade Potpourri

April 30, 2020

The easiest homemade potpourri.

I had 3 bouquets of dried flowers on my mantel. From my birthday in December. I have a hard time throwing things away that are special to me. I wanted to reuse the dried flowers. And I needed/wanted a little decor in my bathroom. So here we are.

The easiest homemade potpourri. Only 2 ingredients. I wanted to reuse the dried flowers. And I needed/wanted a little decor in my bathroom.

The Easiest Homemade Potpourri

What you need:

  • a vase
  • dried flower petals
  • any essential oil

What to do:

  • Carefully pull the petals off the dried flowers. Fill vase halfway.
  • Give a few hearty splashes of essential oil on top of the petals. (I used tangerine because I love the clean smell of citrus.)
  • Repeat and fill vase. Top with essential oil again.

I put these vases in my bathroom and they work really well. Going on day 5 and the tangerine fragrance is still going strong. So fresh and so clean. I think they look pretty too.

I love being able to reuse things for something “new.”
