Monthly Simmer Pots

Simmer Pots

A Christmas simmer pot/stovetop potpourri has seemed to be a hit for the last few years or so. But I thought to myself why only make a simmer pot for the Christmas season? Why not be able to enjoy the aroma of a simmer pot throughout the year? That’s when I decided to come up with a monthly scent, so you can enjoy the look and scent every month. 

 

Here are the scents I came up with that you can use in your own home.
