December 15, 2016 by Jackie Leave a Comment

Christmas is coming, and there’s nothing like the scents of the season permeating through your home to help you feel all warm and cozy. Here are 10 DIYs to guaranteed to make your home smell like Christmas!

 

1. Scented Fire Starters are unique, smell amazing, and are simple to put together. They are made from things you would normally throw out!  If you’ve got old newspaper, dryer lint, and toilet paper tubes, you’re set. Just add in a few cinnamon sticks, whole allspice and whole cloves for the amazing Christmasy scent. Note: not for use in a gas fireplace.
