DIY Scented Sachets With scented sachets, it’s easy to keep your clothes and home smelling like your favorite essential oils rather than commercial scents. They help freshen your closets, drawers, gym bags, sneakers, suitcases, trash cans, vehicles, and so on. They also make great gifts!
Just add several drops of essential oil to a handful of Aroma-Pearls™. Rub around a little and let them dry or pat dry with a cloth. Put the scented pearls in any sachet bag and you’re done! Reapply as often as needed. The highly absorbent and reusable natural clay Aroma-Pearls™ will hold the scent for several days.
Oils and Blends
Lavender oil is probably the top oil used for sachets. Next are many of the other flower oils. The medicinal and herbal scents are mostly used for bath sachets. Your favorite oil or blend is always a great plan. If you don’t have a signature scent or if you are wanting to make some fun ones for gifts, below are some possible ideas for blends. Also, if you have a favorite diffusion or massage blend from another source, by all means use that.
