There are so many cute fixins out there...anyone have a nice harvest recipe. And where do you get those cute mini pumpkins that I often see in them. I just bought a bag and it was $6. Not too bad but I would rather try it myself...How do they make the wax molds of the little shapes and things?

Diana..I just learned something new!...I never realized the little tiny pumpkins were called putka pods! Thanks for the info!

Jenn....After Diana mentioned that there were several sources I took a look. A place called Traditions in Thyme ~ Primitive Autumn, has a bag of 300 for $7.95. That sounded like a good price to me! I might order some too!

Until Later,

Jenn, those 'mini pumpkins' are actually putka pods. If you google them there's several sources online to purchase them.

Hi Jenn, it's been a really long time since I made potpourri... a realllly long time (I was a young teenage girl). I used to use all natural stuff and smells (I didn't have the money then to buy the essential oils). I remember my mom gave me some dried pieces of vanilla bean (I think she got it at a health food store) I would use that a lot and I would dry little fall-colored leaves, marigolds, and zinias. I would also collect little things from the woods like funky sticks and roots and fir-cones or alder-cones, and even unused snail shells, dried up mushrooms, and moss. It was really fun actually I'm going to have to get back into it. Sorry I can't help you with your other questions I would have to stick with the natural smells even now since most of the artificial scents give me terrible headaches.

If the ways is long
Let your heart be strong
Keep right on 'round the bend
Though you're tired and weary
Still journey on to your happy abode
Where all that you love
And are dreaming of
Will be there at the end of the road.
