Holiday Decor: Orange and Clove Pomander

 

Orange and Clove Pomander

Combine oranges and fragrant clove for this
homemade holiday pomander

 
This fragrant and decorative holiday craft will make a delightful gift for grandma or a favorite aunt. It is also a great way to keep little hands busy when you are occupied with your own holiday chores. While it does not take much supervision, it is not a good craft for very small children, who are tempted to pop small, aromatic items into their mouth.
 
 
Materials Needed:
Orange
Whole Cloves
Ribbon

Directions:
1. Punch clove stems into the orange skin. Completely cover outside of orange or create a pattern..
2. When finished, display in a bowl or fasten a ribbon around the orange, and hang. The orange pomander will be a fragrant holiday decoration.

Giveaway


 
There are 5 days remaining until the end of our "Holiday" Giveaway!
 
 
In October, we gave away a set of Cheers Spooky Bar Towels also from Pottery Barn. (Below)
 
 
We ran this Holiday Giveaway for only 2 weeks to ensure that you receive this pillow in time for the holidays. If you should win, you can receive this prize in time to give to someone as a gift or to decorate your home. Hurry....Enter Now! Pottery Barn featured this pillow for 3 years now. The first year I saw one but didn't buy one. The following year I couldn't resist. (See Christmas 2011 post) This year I knew that my readers would love to have one absolutely free! We pay shipping!

Good Luck,
Candy Castle Dreams

Christmas Cookies
by Norma Rose
 
Sift the flour, mix the butter,
Roll the dough for the cookie cutter.
A white sugar star, a
red Christmas bell,
A brown teddy bear with a gingery smell.
Christmas cookies taste so sweet.
They're fun to bake and good to eat.
