Used in Sachets
Learn some of the many delight
full and practical ways to use it to
increase your enjoyment Of the
product. The first and most obvi-
Gus use is in "SachetS," those
dainty little silk pillows to tuck
among lingerie or hankies or even
sheets. They are fun to make at
home. and serve either as inexpen-
sive personal gifts or bridge prizes.
Odds and ends of material from
your work basket can be used and
there is no end Of designs.
Regardless of the type you make.
follow this basic procedure for fill
ing. Use absorbent cotton. cotton
batting, lambs wool or cotton fan
mel. Lambs wool is probably best if
you can get 1t because its porous
ness allows all the perfume to drift
through. The thickness of the
sachet filling is determined by the
desired puffiness to the finished
product. Whatever filling" is used
should be split in two layers and
the sachet powder itself sprinkled
through the center sandwich style.
The sandwich" is then encased in
whatever style container you wish.
Scents Dresser Drawers
Use finished sachets in clothes.
linen closets and dresser drawers.
Some girls go so far as to keep
them in their desks to help scent
stationery. Use sachets to pad your
clothes hangers. The soft contours
are much kinder to your favorite
dresses and blouses than rigid
metal or wood frames. You may
use the sachet-f filled cotton pad
ding or quilted chintz scented with
Sachet for covering your old hang
ers. Then all Of your clothes will
have the elusive. delicate smell of
your favorite perfume. Make little
Sachets to pin in your clothes or
hats. Those little flannel disposable
powder puffs can be stitched to-
gether with a filling Of the powder.
Tuck into your bra or sew to the
shoulder pads Of your dresses.
Another dainty and feminine
way to use them is inside your
handbags. OF course. this charm

with old paper clips. scrubbed
notes. letters and junk discarded.
Makeup should be carried in one
of the little envelope bags with
Upper or button closings. This not
only keeps all your makeup to-
gether so you will not have to
scramble through all the contents
of the bag to find your lipstick. but
also keeps your precious compact
and lipstick cases from becoming
scratched or injured.
Still another way of using sachet
powder is to sprinkle it between the
layers Of tissue paper you use to
line your bureau drawers. Here's
another original tip. Fill tiny ball
Of cotton with sachet powder and
tack in the middle of your crispi-
est. showiest hankies. These can be
tucked into suit or jacket pocket.
