Guest guest Posted November 11, 2005 Report Share Posted November 11, 2005 Sock Drawer Sachet The Herb Companion, October/November 1993 4 tbsp. Lavender 4 tbsp. Thyme 2 tbsp. Lemon balm Especially nice for a man's drawer or wardrobe, this mixture has a clean, refreshing scent. We've trimmed our small burlap bag with raffia and a cedar acorn hot-glued in position. Recipe makes about 1/2 cup, enough to fill a 3-by-4-inch bag. Herbal Sachet 2 ounces dried lavender flowers 1/2 ounce dried rose petals 1/2 ounce dried rosemary 1/2 ounce dried mint 1/2 ounce dried thyme 1 ounce dried scented geranium leaves Blend all ingredients in a large bowl. Place the mixture into a large glass jar or tin and place on a tight fitting lid. Allow the herbs to sit for 2 weeks. Shake a couple times per week. It's also optional to add a few drops of essential oil such as a mixture of lavender and rose to the jar. After the 2 weeks divide the mixture and use for sachets or place in small muslin bags. Enclose the sachets in plastic bags to keep until you are ready to give them away.
