potpourri holder
To create a potpourri holder, gather a mason jar (clear or painted),
a favorite scent of potpourri, a doily, and about 33” of thin ribbon
or twine.
Fill your mason jar with the potpourri until you reach the top
of the jar.

This easy D.I.Y. makes a great quick gift
idea, as well as an aesthetic solution to
putting out some fragrances in your own
living space. Whether you stiffen the doily
or not, you can still remove the cover and
refill or refresh your potpourri as needed.
PRO TIP: Add drops of essential oils to
refresh the scent and prolong the shelf life
without having to reassemble the whole
project with fresh potpourri!
A B
Use your doily to cover the jar. OPTION: You can choose to
either stiffen your doily for a ruffled edge that won’t lose shape as
easily, or you can use an unstiffened doily.
Tie the ribbon or twine (we used both) around the doily top, and
secure with a bow.

Your potpourri holder is now finished!
