Potpourri Rocks Formulation (Recipe)

Ingredients:

1/2 cup plain flour
1/2 cup salt
1/4 tsp. essential or fragrance oil
2/3 cup boiling water
1 cup crushed rose or other flower petals
Various dyes

Instructions:

In a bowl, mix the salt and flour well. Blend in the petals. Add your fragrance or essential oil until you have the desired strength (should be fairly strong). Add enough boiling water to the mixture to form a dough. Divide the dough into portions to color differently. Add your dyes to each portion until you have a few different colors. Start forming the dough into small irregular shapes to look like stones. Allow the "stones" to dry. Place them in a pretty dish to display.
