How to make a sachet.
An organza sachet to hold
potpourri, rose petals or lavender flowers. Use it to scent your
linens, drawers, pillows or as a wedding favor and gift. The
organza you choose should be fine enough not to allow the
potpourri/lavender/rosebuds to fall out of it.
Refresh your sachet
intermittently by scenting it with a drop of essential, fragrance
oil or spray with your favorite perfume.

Instructions
1. Fold the 10" organza square in half and cut it. Fold each half in half
again and cut them. You will use only 3 of the 4 pieces.
2.
Fold each
organza section in half, making a rectangle shape and iron it. Sew one
short side and one long side. With one side folded over, sewing
the others should make a tube shape with the top open. If you
don't have a sewing machine, you may stitch the sides by hand or
insert fusible web and iron them together.
3.
Fold the
organza tubes inside out, so the seam is on the inside. Stuff each one
with equal amounts of lavender and rose petals until they are
plump. Be sure to scent your contents first by using a drop of
fragrance oil. This works best if you mix the lavender,
unscented potpourri, dried rose buds or rose petals in a bowl
after you have scented it.
4.
Turn the top
section in to create a finished edge. If you are fusing it :
Insert a small piece of fusible web and apply a hot iron to seal
the end. Or hand sew it closed.
5.
Find the center
of the ribbon and place it under one of the small pillow shaped
sachets. Stack the other two on top of it and tie the ribbon
around all three. Knot the ribbon on top and tie a bow. Trim the
ends of the ribbon in a V shape.
6. Optional:
Add a few beads to each corner and place a floating lotus or silk flower head on the
top. Glue in place with Fabri-tac glue
