Decorative Diffuser

Homemade & Inexpensive

https://www.cutoutandkeep.net/projects/decorative-diffuser • Posted by Mary Beth

I love candles but good ones are expensive and with small children safety is an issue. A nice, fragrant, decorative alternative to candles are diffusers but they can also be expensive. I like to use what I have on hand recycling items that might otherwise be thrown away and this diffuser fits the bill. I had been saving a small glass jelly jar that I liked because of it’s square shape but was not sure what to do with it it until now.

You will need

bamboo Skewers {readily available for about $1 at discount stores and grocery stores-I used a few that came with my Pancake Puffs maker!} Liquid Potpourri Glass Container(s) {jar, vase, glass, etc.}

Description

I love candles but good ones are expensive and with small children safety is an issue. A nice, fragrant, decorative alternative to candles are diffusers but they can also be expensive. I like to use what I have on hand recycling items that might otherwise be thrown away and this diffuser fits the bill. I had been saving a small glass jelly jar that I liked because of it’s square shape but was not sure what to do with it it until now.

Instructions

1. Decorate your jar as desired-I used seam binding tied in a bow, a small tag and a charm

2. Place the liquid potpourri into your container-1/2 inch to an inch will do

3. Snip off the pointed end of the skewers

4. Place skewers into your container-flip the skewers every few days That’s it! Easy and inexpensive. Edited: A lot of people had questions about where to purchase the liquid potpourri - Casey was sweet enough to leave her suggestions in the comment section and I am also including her recommendations here for you!
