Create a sweet-smelling lavender sachet with herbs. Give the sachet as a gift, or tuck it into a bureau drawer to keep clothes or linens fresh smelling!
To make a simple sachet, here are the steps:
Spread out and iron a handkerchief or any material that you like. (Try a gaily colored antique handkerchief which are easy to find at thrift stores and antiques shops, often selling for under $1.)- Fold the handkerchief (or material of your choice) in half, right sides together, and sew up two adjacent sides (leaving one short side open), as if you were making a little pillowcase.
- Turn it right side out, fill it with dried lavender to within two inches of the top, and tie it tightly with a brightly colored ribbon.
Give the sachet as a gift, or tuck it into a bureau drawer to keep clothes or linens fresh smelling!

Great information on how to make lavender sachet
Thank you for the easy way to make a sachet. I have a 4 year old lavender plant that is blooming now.
