How to make your home smell like Christmas

Here is a mini tutorial to hold me over til my next big post (it's going to be great!)
I like to hang out on pinterest. Sometimes for ridiculous amounts of time. Occasionally I see something and wonder.. Would that really work?
Well yesterday I decided to try an orange candle. I saw a bunch of pictures on.. Apartment therapy? I think that's right. Anyways, the
goal is to get all of the fruit out of the orange peel, with that middle stem thing that goes all the way through the orange still attached to the peel(that didn't happen) pour in some alcohol, and voila! You have a cute little candle that makes your house smell great.
Like I said. The 'wick' did not make it through intact. And we don't drink alchohol so I transposed a tea candle into the orange peel by melting it with a lighter.
I was still really proud of myself and was able to get a few good pictures before my husband walked in and said, is something burning?
Sure nuff. The thing had caught on fire.
My apartment did not smell like oranges, and I have drips of wax all over my table.
Epic Fail.
If you are determined to have your house smell like amazing oranges, save some of your orange peels and set them on the stove to boil. Sprinkle in some cinnamon. Now my house smells like Christmas. :)
