House Sachets

April 12, 2012 By Spoonful of Sugar - 22 Comments

I have a love of little houses. I made up this little house sachet (filled it with lavender and stuffing) to hang in my wardrobe. If you are looking for a fun project to use your treasured scraps, you can’t go past this sweet Fabric House Ornament project by Retro Mama.  They were designed to be Christmas ornaments, but by using pretty colours, they look good year round!

I think this will be the first of many!
