[Nfb-krafters-korner] pumpkin craft

[jill]

Kathy,
That's sounds descrumtious!( combination of delicious and scrumptious)  A
friend of mine from where I used to work would simmer on the stove in our
break room during the holidays a great potpourri.  She would use a bit of
water with orange peel, cloves and a cinnamon stick!  It smelled wonderful.
I have used that at my house when having family over before.

Hi all,

 

Thought I'd share about a craft project we did in my garden club tonight. We
made pumpkin potpourri!

How we did it was to cut open the top of our pumpkins, scrape out all the
insides, then carve holes around the sides of the pumpkin. Then we sprinkled
cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves all around the insides of the pumpkin. Layered
it good. Then we put in a votive candle. When lighted, the pumpkin scent
along with the spices fills the room. Yum! the scent of pumpkin really is
one of those smells I always associate with autumn, that and falling leaves.


I also collected my pumpkin seeds to bake in the oven!

 

Anyhow, thought you might enjoy hearing about this. 

 

The more I learn, the more I want to learn!

 

Cathy
