It seems like I make most things for other people. Don't mistake me here, I love giving presents, especially ones I make. But sometimes I look around and wonder where all my creativity went - literally. So I made these sachets, sweetly scented for my own closet. I had fun with the buttons and trims.
How much of what you create do you keep for your own enjoyment?

Do you have Barbara Milo Ohrbach's book? (can't remember the title) about scent in the home? Fabulous book, been around for a couple decades, so you should be able to get it in the library :) It has recipes for making sachets and all sorts of neat potions
