SACHET BAGS


Sachets are attractive cotton, silk or linen bags filled with potpourri and
tied with ribbon. Lace or embroidery may be added. Sachet bags are often
small, traditionally about 3 x 5 inches (but you can make them any size).
The following recipes are for the potpourri only. Cure a minimum of 4 weeks before
filling sachets to maximize aroma.
