Basic Perfume
Ingredients:
1 cup water
1 cup fresh chopped flower blossoms
Directions:
In a bowl place one cheese cloth where the edges are hanging over the
bowl. Fill with 1 cup of flower blossoms of your choice. Pour water over
the flowers until they are completely covered. Cover and let sit
overnight. The next day using the edges of cheesecloth pull it out of
the bowl and gently squeeze the scented water into a small pot.
Simmer the water until about 1 teaspoon is left. Cool and place into a
small bottle. Making perfume this way has a shelf life of about 1 month.
Some suggestions for flowers: Lavender, Lilac, Orange Blossoms or even
Honeysuckle. Anything that is highly fragrant works best.
