  2. I've never tried these, well at least not DIY. I am the anti-Martha trying desperately to find a sliver of DIY and craft in me. I may give this a whirl. It would make a great gift.

  3. Ooh I have clementines in my house right now. Maybe I can substitute those peels for oranges and make a Clementine vanilla simmer pot.
