When I made the frangipani towels I started to think, I love the frangipani flower but the best thing about the flower is the smell. So I thought I needed to make them smell like the flower, so I got some old potpourri and put some frangipani oil into it, then whipped up these little potpourri bags and wrapped them with the towels. Now the towels will smell like the flowers.

Thanks Shirlene, I thought it added that little something extra. I love the smell of frangipanis, Do they grow in Utah.

Those flowers are my favourite - I use Frangipani lotion on my feet every night before I go to bed and in the morning after my shower! It reminds me so much of summer. We used to go to a local pub in Adelaide and they had Frangipana trees everywhere - now they are gone! Love to you and merry Christmas Alice, Chris

Oh how nice - and of course - this is the flower of Aloha - but it is called plumeria - I had one growing and it actually bloomed for me, but old man winter took it from me last year. Guess I will need to go back to Hawaii so I can get more. LOL

Donna that is very useful information, I have always just called them frangipani. I will have to add that into my description.Alice.

I was looking for plumeria designs and came across this post. Thanks for the link to where to buy them. I just love the fragrance of these flowers! Just returned from Hawaii and the designs will be a wonderful memory of our trip.
