Sachet Hearts Pillows

You will need:
your favorite colored material
cardboard heart to trace
needles and tread
pillow stuffing
lavender scent (use any scents you want)
scissors
lace
ribbon
decorative buttons
small tassels
beads and charms (optional)







 Instructions:
Cut a heart out of card board about 6x6 or larger
Trace on material; then cut out two heart patterns
Sew edge of heart 1/4 inch in; inside out. Leave a non stitched area about 1 1/2 inch wide so you can stuff it.
After you sew, pull heart through non stitched hole and turn right side out.
Then stuff with stuffing and scented potpourri
Sew up hole 
Sew lace around edges of stuffed heart
Sew on buttons, tassels, and or ribbon
Have fun and decorate as you wish!
I make a loop in the back, so you can hang it if you want.




Make them fancy by using beads, and charms! :)



 Put them in your lingerie drawer, in your closet to make your clothes smell good; even in your car!! Also give as gifts :)
Cut out any patterns you want, be creative!

Hand Made Crafts



Look at some of the crafts we have been making at church. We are some talented ladies!

Ella's perfect cross stitch; she is so good at this!

Barb's beautiful book marks:  She uses a craft knife to cut out leaves and stems; then draws the flowers and herbs and puts shinny paper on back.
