Sachets
For
a simple sachet, gather dried lavender branches or dried flowers
together and place in a small handkerchief. Tie into a bundle with
lavender-colored ribbon. Look for old handkerchiefs as garage
sales, and try mixing lavender with other scents such as rose
geranium or lemon verbena for a different mix. These make lovely
gifts, or they can be simply tucked into lingerie drawers or linen
closets.
Net Sachets: Lavender flowers done up in pretty, colored
net squares or bags and decorated with satin ribbons are easy
ways to store the scented blossoms. Gather together squares of
colorful material and cut in any size you want. Place a few tablespoons
of lavender in the center of each fabric square and gather together
with ribbon or lace. Use the sachets to scent your closets, drawers
of luggage. If they lose their scent, you can toss them in a jar,
add some lavender essential oil, and let sit for about one week
before using again.
