Simmering Spices

I see my Ginger Citrus Simmering Spices show up on Pinterest a lot. So I wanted to share this alternative to those Prim Fixins. I actually made these Simmering Spices before I ever made the Ginger Citrus version, but I guess I thought I'd already posted them at that time.

These Simmering Spices are just as easy to put together as the Ginger Citrus. Just start with your favorite Mason Jar. The bottom layer is dried apples. That is followed by layers of cinnamon stick chunks, star anise, whole allspice, and cloves. Of course, you could use any combination of spiced you'd like. Then it's just a matter of adding a homespun bow and a nice lid (the lid I used is zinc). Perfect for gift-giving this fall, over the holidays, or even as a housewarming gift.

Note that all of my sources for this project are listed on the Primitive Crafting Supplies page, the link to which you can always find near the top of the blog (just under the header).
