Add Dimension with Dried Rose Buds
Rose is often a staple for potpourri making due to the beautiful floral scent and varying colours. Dried rose buds add another dimension with their shape and are perfect for a hallway or lounge potpourri bowl. Just add fragrance or essential oil!
Sweetheart potpourri recipe
Over on our blog we have a recipe for sweetheart potpourri that would be perfect for Valentines Day. We recommend using a variety of rose buds and rose petals in different colours. We used bright red and dark red rose buds with some cream rose petals, but feel free to mix any variation of rose buds and petals to fit your taste. To enhance the natural floral aromas, try adding a few drops of a rose fragrance oil. Tag us on Instagram if you make your own blend – @daisyshopuk – as we would love to see what you create!
Random Rose potpourri
On our website we have a variety of pre-made potpourri mixes. Our Random Rose potpourri is a beautiful mix of dried rose buds and petals in shades of pink and red interspersed with occasional pink peppercorns and UK grown Parvi leaves. We enhance the natural floral fragrance with a few drops of Just Rose fragrance oil. We called it Random Rose because the availability of rosebud and petal colours varies throughout the year. This would look and smell lovely in a decorative bowl in your home or divided into organza bags perfect for a small gift or favour.
