So, in order to make a sachet, you will need any pouch (it can be a knitted napkin, silk fabric or any other material), as well as a bouquet of herbs and essential oils.

You can just make a bag, or you can arrange a sachet in the form of a pillow, a heart, and so on. The cover can be decorated with openwork and embossed braid, satin ribbons or lace.

After you put the powder of herbs, petals and flowers in the bag, you need to sew it up (when the odors disappear over time, the bag can be ripped, freed from the old powder and filled with a new one).

Let's talk about filling.

As for the manufacture of the powder itself, there is also a very simple technology:

first, powders from various plants are mixed, and then the mixture is sieved through a not too frequent sieve (it is advisable to use closed drums so that the smell does not evaporate from the mixture).

After that, to fix the odor, a highly concentrated solution of resins is added to the powder, which is first triturated with magnesium carbonate or with an iris root.

You can also add essential oil to the powder (but not more than the powder can absorb).

To make a sachet, you will need dried herbs, flower petals, spices, and seeds. Some of the ingredients can be purchased in pharmacies, special aroma shops and shops, and some you can even find in your garden.

Filled with sachet seeds, herbs, petals. When the scent has disappeared, you can always refill the bag and put it where it used to give its scent before.

Here are some nice traditional sachet bag flavors:
... Rose petals (3 hours), orange flowers (2 hours), jasmine flowers (1 hour), gardenia flowers (1 hour),
... Lavender (3 tsp), rose petals (2 tsp), violet root (1 tsp),
... Rose petals (1 tsp), rosemary (1 tsp), cloves (1 tsp), chamomile (1 tsp),
... Yarrow, lavender, rose petals, ginger (equal parts).

If you want to make a love sachet, combine rose petals (4 parts), carnation petals (5 parts) and one part gypsophila and orange peel. This mixture should be put in a pink bag.

To attract money, two parts of cloves, three parts of patchouli and one part of cinnamon are placed in a green bag.

Also, a sachet bag can be used as an amulet amulet for a car. To do this, mix one part of cumin, comfrey, wormwood, two parts of juniper and two parts of rosemary. This mixture should be put in a red cloth bag and hidden from the eyes.

How to make

First you need to pick up a fragrant mixture. Its composition is a matter of your taste or goals, for which sachet will be applied. Scented mixtures will remind you of summer, the spicy East in the cold season, or help create the mood of the New Year holidays.

The fragrant "filling" is placed in a bag. There is absolutely nothing complicated in sewing a sachet. Basically, they are two identical pieces of fabric sewn together. The pouch can be fabric or mesh. Any shape can be given. The sachet can be decorated in any original way.

The mixture of flavors is laid out in a bag, which is then sewn up. When the smells disappear, we open the sachet and fill it with a new "filling".

Flavors and their effects

1. Coffee

This filler is able to neutralize unpleasant odors. The aroma of coffee cheers up and awakens the appetite, so this sachet is perfect for the kitchen. You can use both whole beans and coarse coffee.

2. Dried citrus peel

Citrus fruits cheer up, increase efficiency and repel moths. You can place such a sachet both in the closet and on the desktop. The aroma can be enhanced by dripping a little lemon, orange, grapefruit or tangerine essential oil on the peel. But citrus oils are very volatile, so you will have to renew the aroma quite often.

3. Spices

In the sachet, you can add cinnamon sticks, cloves, star anise, vanilla pods, ginger root and bay leaf. Of course, it is better to place such a sachet in the kitchen to raise your appetite.

4. Fragrant soap

Put a bar of fragrant soap in your bag so that your favorite scent will always accompany you.

5. Fragrant teas

In any tea department, you can find a huge variety of different types of tea. And flavored tea (with aromas of fruits, berries or flowers) will be an ideal filler for sachets, as it combines the smells of tea and aromatic additives.

6. Dry spicy herbs

You can bring them from the dacha, or you can buy them in the vegetable row. The choice is great: basil, fennel, thyme, mint, lemon balm, rosemary, marjoram, sage. The aroma of mint soothes, relieves irritation, pacifies. This herb is the most popular flavoring agent.

7. Flavored sea salt

You can buy ready-made, or you can add the aroma of sea salt using essential oils or your favorite perfume. Salt can be replaced with rice, sawdust, wood shavings, etc.

8. Conifers

Pine buds, needles, cones and pieces of bark are used. This is the most suitable flavor for the New Years. Again, the scent can be enhanced with pine essential oils. Coniferous odors cheer up, are good for the lungs, deodorize the room and have antibacterial properties.

9. Dried flowers, petals and forest herbs

Lavender, rose petals, jasmine, chamomile, calendula - the choice is very large. Choose which aromas of flowers or medicinal herbs you like best.

10. Wax

Beeswax will help add a subtle honey scent to your sachet. Grate it and mix in a jar 1: 1 with sea salt, let stand for 2 - 4 days. You will get a filler with a delicate honey aroma. However, do not leave this sachet in direct sunlight or near a battery, as the wax may melt.

1. All herbs and flowers that you plan to use in the sachet mix should be finely chopped by hand, but not to a dusty state.

2. For a bag it is better to use light natural fabrics - cotton or chintz. The bag can be decorated with lace, decorative buttons, braid, applique or embroidery.

3. Bags of lavender or hops have a beneficial effect on sleep. This sachet would be appropriate under a pillow or on a bedside table.

4. For drawers with underwear it is better to use not an ordinary sachet, but sheets of paper sprayed with floral or citrus oils, as well as your favorite perfume. These sheets should be placed at the bottom of the box.

5. For moth control, you can use a sachet filled with dried citrus rind, thyme, lavender, ginseng, cedar or sage.

6. In the Eastern tradition, cloves and cinnamon are considered "money" spices, acorns are symbols of fertility and wealth, and patchouli is considered to be stable and constancy. Make a mini sachet with this filling and carry it with you in your purse. Suddenly, a fragrant bag will attract your eyes. Good luck!

Enjoy your favorite flavors anytime, anywhere with the help of a simple little thing - a sachet.
