Lilac Sachets

In the spring, I cut large bunches of lilacs. I hang them in a
walk-in closet upside down for drying. While they dry, I stitch
small pouches (from scrap cloth) and add ribbons for hanging. I put the dried lilacs in the pouches and give them to family for their closets. My closet has the fresh smell of lilacs for weeks. As far as cost there really is none as the cloth I use is scraps and the flowers grow all over my property. *NOTE* If you do not grow lilacs ask a neighbor who does if you can harvest some of theirs.

Editor's Note: This would also work well with lavender.
