Sticking to my new year's resolution to use what I already have for future craft projects, I whipped up this sweet little lavender sachet today. I have a gazillion of these little glassine bags and thought they'd make for a nice sachet:
I simply hand-stamped the French script on the front. I added the little birdy as an after-thought and I quite like it now.
Then I added some lavender buds. I stitched the opening closed. And guess what happened? You couldn't smell the lavender! Doh! So I had to poke itty bitty holes all around it so you can actually smell the aroma. I get just enough of the smell without it being to overpowering.
Now to figure out if I want to add it to my unmentionables drawer or the hallway closet. Decisions, decisions...
