Since I was using a lightweight woven cotton, I chose to fray all the edges instead of cutting.
Simply knick the starting end with tips of scissors and pull ends apart for needed length and width.
Align the cut fabric pieces with right sides together.
At the sewing machine, sew all 3 sides together leaving one short end unstitched.
Turn sewn piece right side out.
Combine 1 cup dried lavender blooms with 1/4 cup white rice in a small bowl.
The rice helps to absorb moisture to keep the lavender fresh longer.
It also provides added weight to the sachet.
Pour mixture in to prepare sachet, filling 23 of the way.
Tie elastic around the top to secure and then tie a decorative bow around the elastic.
The natural scent of the lavender lasts about three month in these sachets.
you’ve got the option to reactive the smell by gently scrunching and shaking around the sachet.
How do you like to use your lavender scented sachets?
