I love the smells of Fall. I have a decorative bouquet of flowers that I bought at a garage sale for $4. And a table for $10. I might bring it in once it freezes outside so it won't break. The glass table was such a great find and the flowers look so good on it, but they are missing something.
I found a bunch of incense the other day, and I took one stick of it out of the package. For some reason, I thought of the bouquet on the glass table. I put the UNLIT incense stick in the bouquet and I pushed it into the foam at the bottom of the bouquet. You have to be careful or the stick will break. It makes the artificial bouquet have a strong smell, I am so happy with it.
I have decided I am going to do that when people come over, it is an easy way scent the air, in a frugal way, for company.
Happy Fall Season!

You could use a nail to make a "starter" hole for the incense stick. I have a large nail in box of cup hooks and small nails for hanging pictures.
This is s great idea! I have some small boxes of incense someone didn't use up & they still smell strong. However, I don't like to burn anything in the house, so I didn't know what to do with them. Now I'll use them in small artificial flower arrangements in each room! MartyD's advice to use a nail is perfect, although some of my little bouquets don't have any foam, so I'll just tuck the incense cone in the middle of those. Thanks for the clever tip!
