Orange Candles

Growing up I remember my Mom always keeping all 6 of us kids 

busy during the holiday winter school break by having us make these orange pomanders for gifts for our teachers by

covering an entire orange with cloves.

This project is a just a little different by barely cutting off

the top of the orange and dig out a little bit of the center

so that you can fit a small votive size candle in the center.

Once you cut and carved take your time to push the clove 

into the to of the orange.

This is super easy to do. 

Here's another fun way to add a fresh holiday scent to your

home.  Using a carving took gently carve away strips around the 

orange then push the cloves into the carve away section.

You will get a wonderful aroma of orange and clove scent.

You can easily push these cloves right into the carved

away portion of the orange. 

When you are done and are maybe able to make more than one

try putting them into a bowl to enjoy the scent throughout the house.
