Lucky Four-Leaf Clover Scented Sachet

Join us as we welcome an adorable project from one of our amazing sponsors WonderFil Specialty Threads!


Scented sachets are wonderful additions to the home as they can be used in a variety of clever ways all around the house. Tuck them in closets or in drawers to leave a lightly fragrant scent on your clothing, keep them in your vehicle as a natural alternative to car fresheners, drop them in your dryer to keep clothes smelling fresh, keep them with your storage to act as a natural repellent instead of using mothballs, drop them in a bath for an aromatic and relaxing at-home spa day, or even tuck them into your pillow case to help you relax and sleep at night. They also make cute and thoughtful handmade gifts for every occasion!


These adorable little pouches are not only practical household items, but incredibly easy to make and turn into decorative pieces. Here’s what you need to make a four leaf clover sachet:

  • download and print the four leaf clover pattern 
  • felt or wool in dark green and light green colouration
  • a chalk fabric pen
  • dried lavender or other dried herbs, flowers, or spices of your choice (these can easily be purchased at a local specialty spice store or online)
  • Eleganza 8wt perle cotton in white
  • appliqué pins
  • no. 24 chenille needle
Note: by changing the colour of the felt from green to any other bright combination of colours, you’ll end up with a pretty flower instead!
