How to make cheap Christmas presents? Children need to make affordable gifts and they can get an idea from this Fiction Book. One suggestion is to make the flower potpourri. This acts like a scent freshener.

How to make a Flower Potpourri.
Use a small plastic bag, or clean old pantyhose that is cut off at the ankle. Fill up the bag with sweet smelling flowers like Jasmine, Lily, Rose etc. Tie the bag up. Decorate with a ribbon bow.

Alternatively, you can fill up clean containers like glasses, glass bottles, plastic bottles etc, with your flower potpourri.

Firstly, how to prepare your flowers:
Buy cheap flowers from your local florist or pluck them from your garden or somewhere that you are legally allowed to. Tell your florist you want old, discarded flowers. They sell by the nickels and dimes.

Dry your flowers in the sun. Spread your flowers on a thick wad of newspaper and allow the sunshine to dry them.

When the flowers are sufficiently dry, they won’t decompose. If you use a plastic bag, you need to puncture the bag with tiny holes to allow the scent to diffuse through.
