Uses things all DIYrs have around their house! SIMPLE! :D
I found this in the series Book of Knowledge
an old Children's encyclopedia with information from 1875-1919.
It is loaded with things to learn, make, do, explore, etc.
I was searching for a tutorial on how to make perfume without all the junk we use now-a-days. Well, here it is!

Step 1
cut wadding to fit into the jar.
-
Step 2
pour olive oil over wadding (not while it is in the jar though) and let stand.
-
Step 3
take your flowers or petals and make sure they are freshly cut and dry of any surface water.
-
Step 4
if full flowers, cut off petals
-
Step 5
sprinkle the bottom of the jar with salt, barely covering the bottom.
-
Step 6
add the petals on top of that.
-
Step 7
add wadding on top of petals. Repeat last few steps.
-
Step 8
once your jar is quite full, put a lid (plastic lid would work best, but use what you have) on the jar.
Let it sit in the sun for a fortnight.
-
Step 9
after the fourteen days are up, you may leave it to set longer if you wish, or you may extract the oil.
-
Step 10
to extract the oil, you can use anything to push the wadding together and extract the oil from it. The book says a large spoon works quite well.
-
Step 11
mine is still setting, but I cannot wait until it's done. I'll update when I take a picture of the finished product and then I'll tell you how it came out! :)
