One of my favorite scents in the world is the combination of cloves and oranges. I call these Christmas oranges. This is a tradition that has become one of the first things that I do in order to begin the holiday season, which is pressing whole cloves into oranges and tying beautiful silk and satin ribbons around them. If this tradition isn't something that you have tried before, then I really recommend it, to me it is as calming as any other Christmas activity such as hanging up mistletoe branches or creating popcorn garlands. Cozy and small Christmas traditions like that were the inspiration for the creating of this print.
