Uses for old potpourri

I have some which has discoloured but still smells nice so wondering if I can use it for anything - perhaps scenting sock drawers? If so, what would be the best thing to put it in?

    put it in an old pair of tights to make a little ball and dot some nice smelly oild on it, then hang it in your wardrobe or in your drawers.

    Any odd sock that you have in the drawer - if you are like me, you'll have loads.

    Tip some on an old bit of carpet and grind it up into small flakes (I use my foot), then suck it up into the vacuum cleaner - instant vacuum freshener. Don't use too much or you'll fill the vacuum bag.
