You have to love a decoration project that looks fantastic and doubles as potpourri for your home. This is a wonderful project that will brighten up any holiday party, entry way or mantle. We love turning to Good Ole' Martha for project inspirations, and we just happened to have a bunch of pears that needed to be used! Rather than spend the whole day slaving away in the kitchen, we put these pears to work in our home.

Here's our original inspiration

 

 Follow these easy steps:

1.  With a fine-tipped washable marker, write letters on the front of each pear.

2. Press whole cloves into the flesh along the lines

3. Using a pushpin or a tack first can ease their entry. 

4. Make the letters no earlier than the day your guests arrive

5. Walk by them again and again just to smell them!!!

And you will have a gorgeous, easy display to welcome your Thanksgiving Dinner Guests!

Send us your inspiring fruit pics- we'd love to feature you!
