My mother loves to pick up lavender sachets for our
dresser drawers at the local farmer's market. She loves to smell of fresh,
clean clothing and in order to prevent a stale smell in our clothing and linens
she scatters lavender sachets throughout the house. If you have access to
lavender plants, you should consider making your own sachets. Dried lavender is
quite easy to make or buy as well.
LAVENDER SACHETS
Mix 1/2 oz. of dried powdered lavender flowers with 1/2
teaspoon of powdered cloves. Sew them up tightly in a little cloth pillow and
leave the pillow in a bureau drawer to perfume the clothes. Carla Emery calls
this project, "an old-time elegance."
