Make a cozy, scented winter vase!


Don't put away those mini white lights yet! With a little vinyl, you can make a pretty snowflake potpourri scented vase to get you through the winter! And the best part...at Lett'er Express It you get 12 flakes for $5+FREE SHIPPING. Oh yeah, you heard us right!


Emily over at Toad's Treasures made this is a simple project and it only costs about $4! How you ask? Lett'er Express It {vinyl snowfake}, the Dollar Store {vase}, and Walmart {mini lights and potpourri}! Its also a great gift...who wouldn't want a nice little pick-me-up to get through the rest of winter?!
Here's her simple instructions...

Put the vinyl on the vase:
Lookin' good!

Then alternate the lights and potpourri, twisting the lights around as you go...


and keep going all the way to the top of the vase:

Plug that sweet smelling vase into the wall and what a sight!
I think it would be a great addition to ANY room, but a fab nightlight for the bathroom! And the lights not only look great, but actually warm up the potpourri to help it have a stronger scent.
And speaking of smelling nice, here's one last tip. You can get these oil drops just about anywhere, but I got mine at Bath and Body works. I put a few drops on the apple cinnamon potpourri and it smells even better!


So get your snowflakes and go for it!
{Set of 12 Snowflakes} buy it now!
