How to Make Simple, Low Cost Christmas Gifts
Christmas is on its way. We are searching for ways on how to make simple, low-cost Christmas gifts. Simple, because we are short on time. Low cost, because our budget is already stretched. Handmade, because we want our gifts to have that personal touch.
One of my favorite simple, lowcost Christmas gifts is handmade Sachets. A little fabric, a needle, some thread and dried herbs all combine to make a great gift!
Supplies: Muslin, or other cotton fabric Needle Coordinating Thread Embroidery Thread Ruler Scissors Approximately 1/2 teaspoon Dried Herbs - (More or less according to the strength of the scent) 1/3 – 1/2 cup Cotton Batting or Uncooked Rice Directions: Cut two squares of fabric for each sachet you want to make 1/2” larger than the finished piece. (For a 4” sachet, cut your fabric 4-1/2” x 41/2”.)
