We had no idea you could do this with some orange peel!
Oranges are filled to the brim with vitamins and they’re delicious as well! Everybody knows that oranges are a great source of vitamin C, and it also helps you get enough folic acid. It’s a great piece of fruit!
But did you know you can do something really fun with the leftover peel?
Scented candles
If you peel the oranges in such a way that you’re left with two equal halves of peel (here’s an article on how to do that), you can make something really cute out of them. You can make your own scented candles! The two leftover pieces of orange peel serve as little bowls. It’s a cheap alternative to having to buy all kinds of expensive scented candles. Plus, it’s a fun and easy DIY project that will leave your home smelling amazing!
What do you need?
2 halves of orange peel
2 large tea lights
