Nestle Holiday Gift Basket {Giveaway}
My mom always set us up with fun things to do and create, especially around Christmas, but there is one incredibly easy craft that I particularly remember – We pressed cloves into the skin of an orange, rolled them in spices, and hung them as decorations. The sweet aroma filled our home, and to this day I remember that spicy scent with fondness.
As I was browsing through NestléFamily.com, I came across a similar holiday craft and look forward to making these with my kiddos this week ::
All it takes is a few minutes to transform an ordinary orange into a lovely candleholder. You’ll need an orange, a metal tea light, some cloves and a paring knife. Cut a hole in the top of the orange that’s a little bit larger than the diameter of the tea light. Create a space for the candle to sit, and place it in. Next press cloves into the orange skin. Light the candle, then sit back and enjoy the delicious spicy-citrus scent.

I really like the tradition or idea of wrapping your gifts from your travels in local newspapers. Whenever I travel, I get my family their presents where I’m at – but I never thought of that. Great idea.
