In fact, all you need is a little felt and your favorite essential oil and you are all set! If you have a special sweetheart you would like to make one of these essential oil scented sachets for, take a peek below for the tutorial!

How to Make a Felt Heart Sachet

Supplies:

  • Felt in choice of colors
  • Hot glue, glue gun
  • Scissors
  • Essential oil of choice

Some suggested oils include lavender which is quite calming and soothing, or you can opt for more rustic scents such as clove or citrus. Use an essential oil that appeals to you and your senses!

items needed for this essential oil scented Felt Heart Sachet

Directions:
1. Begin by cutting out two symmetrical hearts. These can be any size you wish. For ours, we opted for a heart that was about palm size.
2. Next, cut out additional, smaller hearts to use as embellished layers. These can be in the size and color of your choosing.

3. You are now going to start stuffing your sachet. To do this, just use your leftover felt scraps! They are soft and absorbent, and they are the perfect size for this project. Simply bunch them up and set them in the center of one of your hearts.
4. Next, add your essential oils. I placed a few drops directly onto the felt scraps and gave it a few seconds to absorb and soak in.

5. Next, you want to place the top on the sachet. Don’t worry, you won’t need to get out a needle and thread. All you need to do is trace the outline with hot glue, and place the additional heart cut out on top. Press the sides firmly to make sure the pieces are well adhered.

6. You can now finish the sachet by adding the additional layers. Simply add some glue to them and press them into place. This step is super easy and only limited by your imagination!

It is sure to provide scent for several week. When the scent fades no worries, just dab a few more drops of the oil directly onto the felt and let it absorb. You can do this over and over again.

Welcome. I'm Alea!

On Premeditated Leftovers I share simple recipes made with whole foods, practical shopping tips, time saving techniques, and meal planning strategies. I also share tips for minimizing food waste, so more of the food that is purchased ends up on the table.

While volunteering as a budget counselor, I realized that food is the element of most people’s budgets where they have the greatest control. I set out to develop low-cost recipes from scratch to prove it’s possible to create delicious meals on a limited budget. Eating well while spending less is about more than just creating recipes using inexpensive ingredients; it’s about creatively combining ingredients so you don’t feel deprived and are inspired to stick to your budget.
