Handmade Lavender Sachets by

Tags: lavender

Ingredients

Two 4” x 4” squares of fabric (cotton and linen work best)

¼ cup dried Veggie Box lavender

½ cup uncooked rice

Lavender essential oil (optional)

Instructions

To make the sachet, place your two squares of fabric with the good sides facing inwards. Use a sewing machine or needle and thread, to sew them together all the way around, leaving a small opening on one side. If you’d like to hang them in your closet, add a small loop of ribbon to one side while you’re sewing it. Snip the corners to give your sachets crisp corners and to prevent the fabric from bunching. Turn the sachet inside out and use a pencil to gently poke the corners in place. In a small bowl, mix the dried lavender with the rice. If you’d like a stronger lavender scent, stir in a few drops of lavender essential oil. Using a small spoon, carefully add the lavender mixture into your sachet. Hand stitch the opening closed. Toss the sachet in your drawers or closet, or bundle it up as a gift!
