DIY Orange Pomander Ball

 

A delicious smelling air freshener made from yummy ingredients you may already have in your kitchen!

You will need:

1. Ribbon

2. an Orange

3. Whole Cloves

4. Scissors

Go ahead and cut about a yard of ribbon. I used a wider wire ribbon. You can use whatever you want to. I did notice that the wire trimmed ribbon held it's shape a little bit better but it doesn't really matter.

I folded the ribbon in half

Lay ribbon flat and place the orange in the middle

Wrap ribbon around to the top of the orange

Crossover the ribbon on the bottom of the orange and bring back to the top. Should look something like this on the bottom:

On the other end, tie a knot

Start adding the cloves...this is the wonderful part because the smell of the orange zest mixes with the cloves...ahhhh

I hung mine on the floor lamp that is right by the front door hoping that the delicious orange clove smell would be the first thing a guest would experience
