Very classy-looking, fairly inexpensive homemade gifts. Time does not include cooling/setting time in fridge. Ingredients:
2 cups liquid potpourri |
4 (1/4 ounce) packages knox gelatin |
paste food coloring (optional) |
Directions:
1. Heat 1 cup of the liquid potpourri almost to a boil (Note: the concentrated type retains its smell more effectively).
2. Stir in 1 package of the gelatin at a time, completely mixing after each addition.
3. When all packets have been stirred in, add the 2nd cup of liquid potpourri.
4. Pour into decorative containers, cover, and put in the fridge until set.
5. WARNING: Your fridge will smell like the potpourri, so make sure there are no foods in the fridge that will be adversely affected.
6. These can be put in small baby food jars that you decorate, or you can put it in new, small 1/2 pint decorative jelly jars.
7. Put a piece of eyelet lace (or comparable breathable fabric) on the top and screw down the ring; if giving as a gift, I would put the canning lid on, then the lace and ring.
8. These can be decorated as you like, and complementary paste food coloring added to intensify the color; for example: blue for blueberry muffin, red for cinnamon spice.
