To make drawer fresheners, you can create simple sachets using dried lavender and small bags.
Making your own drawer fresheners is incredibly easy and effective for adding a pleasant scent to clothes and linens. Based on a very straightforward method:
Here's how you can create these natural fresheners with minimal effort, directly following a method described for making "uber-easy" ones:
- Put a scoop of lavender in each bag. You'll need small fabric bags, like muslin or organza pouches. The amount of dried lavender depends on the size of the bag and your desired strength of scent, but a simple scoop works well.
- Tie it closed. Once the lavender is inside, securely tie the bag with a ribbon or string to prevent the contents from spilling out.
- Erm, that really is it. This method is designed to be quick and simple!
Once made, these small bags can be placed directly into drawers, storage boxes, or even tucked onto shelves in closets to keep items smelling fresh. The natural fragrance of lavender is not only pleasant but also known for its calming properties.
This basic technique can be adapted using other dried herbs or flowers, but lavender is a classic choice for its enduring scent and common availability.
