First Simmer Pot

I’ve always been OBSESSED with candles but now that I had my baby I’ve been worried about burning them with all the chemicals and toxins in them so I tried a simmer pot and it was AMAZING. Made my entire house smell like fall🍂🍁

Recipe:

1 Orange

1 Apple

1 Lemon

2 Cinnamon sticks

dash of cinnamon

dash vanilla extract

Next time I won’t add the lemon, I think it’ll be better without it!!

... Read moreSimmer pots are a delightful and safe alternative to traditional candles, especially for families with young children. By using natural ingredients like fruits and spices, you can create a warm and inviting aroma throughout your home. For this simmer pot recipe, simply slice one orange and one apple, and combine them in a pot with two cinnamon sticks, a dash of cinnamon, and a splash of vanilla extract. Allow the mixture to simmer on low heat, adding additional water as needed. The result is a fragrant blend that captures the essence of fall, making it perfect for gatherings or a relaxing evening at home. Not only does this method eliminate harmful chemicals found in many candles, but it also allows you to customize the scents to your liking. Feel free to experiment with other fruits like pears or berries, and spices such as cloves or nutmeg, to create a unique scent tailored to your preferences. Overall, simmer pots are a fantastic way to embrace the beauty of the autumn season while maintaining a safe home environment for your family. Enjoy the process of creating your simmer pot and let the beautiful scents transform your space into a cozy fall haven.
