Sachets are fun little bags or pouches filled with refreshing scents, which are used in closets and dressers to lightly scent your clothing,and all.  Of course you can buy sachets from a home decorating or department store, you can try your hand at making your own sachet for that personal touch using materials that can be purchased from a fabric or craft supply store, or in this case a handkerchief. It only takes a few minutes and once finished, you can place your handmade sachets into your drawers or closets to freshen your clothing.
