Smells of Orange was a prompt I had to sit and ponder for a bit. I wanted to find some potpourri that had dried orange slices in it and figure out a creative way to use that, but when I went to find some, I was unable to find any. This forced me to think about what I could do that went somewhat outside of the box and didn’t utilize “orange” in the predictable way.

I started looking around the house to get inspired by orange, and realized I had cinnamon sticks in the cabinet and as I love the smell of cinnamon, I knew it would be a perfect representation as a smell of orange as it is beautifully aromatic. The teacup used in the photos was an object that I’ve been wanting to really utilize in a creative way, and I knew this would be the perfect opportunity. The shape of the sticks, and the fiery look of the tinsel provided a fun, fall bonfire theme and you can almost smell the essence of cinnamon just looking at it.
