I set the kids to work sticking cloves into the fruit for pomanders, while I scrounged up some ribbon and candles.
The result, a pretty (and lovely smelling) decoration for our mantle.

Pomander Jars
I've been saving these adorable, miniature mason jars for months and debating what to do with them. Inspiration finally struck when I found baby clementines at the grocery store. They're even smaller than normal clementines, and quite a few will easily fit into a pickle jar.

I haven't thought about making these since I was a kid! We have an overabundance of clementines at the moment; maybe I should break out tthe cloves! Thanks for sharing.
