Do you to know how to make Christmas potpourri that smells heavenly and will surely get your whole family in the holiday spirit?

I’ve got a simple recipe that only takes minutes to prepare.

How to Make Christmas Potpourri

• Pot filled with 3/4 of water on stove
• 2T of vanilla
• 1 T of whole cloves
• 1 sliced orange
• 1 sliced lemon
• 1 c of cranberries
• Twig of rosemary (I tend to use a lot)
• 3-4 cinnamon sticks

Bring the water to a boil and then simmer all day long. In the evenings, I just turn off the burner. The next day, I usually add another tablespoon of vanilla and fresh rosemary and simmer all day long. You can resuse daily. It might discolor but it still smells divine.

You can also make up the Christmas potpourri in a small slow cooker. 

Smelling the scent of the holidays while writing Christmas cards, preparing my Christmas calendar, or playing Christmas bingo, always gets our family in the holiday mood.
