DIY GIft #6: Scented Sugar


This is easy-peasy, cheap and a delicious little gift.

What You Need:
Granulated Sugar
Clean rose petals OR orange or lemon peel OR vanilla beans
Glass jar with a tightly sealing lid.


INSTRUCTIONS:
Layer granulated sugar with the rose petals OR (slightly dried out) orange and lemon peel OR a couple of vanilla beans. Mix small batches, and let them sit for a few days in tightly sealed jars while the scents infuse the sugar. One jar or a trio serves makes a sweet (get it, sweet?) prezzie! Moms can put the sugar in their coffee or on their fruit, kids can sprinkle it on decorated cupcakes or in yogurt. Yum.
