Lavender Dryer Sachets

An alternative, natural solution to fresh clothes out of the dryer, lavender dryer sachets. Instead of using dryer sheets with synthetic perfumes and dyes that are often reactive to allergies and skin sensitives, create a very easy all natural solution.

* Use muslin sachet bags (found in many craft stores) or make your own "tea bag" using muslin. Sewing a square approximately 3 to 4 inches.
* Fill with dried lavender petals with 2-3 drops lavender essential oil

- Your laundry will come out of the dryer soft with a very subtle lavender scent.
- It will last about 5-7 loads

If it is a sachet bag, just refill with some fresh dried lavender. If you made a tea bag, you can reuse it by adding 1-2 drops of essential oil and putting in your closet or dresser drawer.
