Lavender Sachet Activity Step-by-Step Guide:

Follow our step-by-step guide in how to facilitate the Lavender Sachet Activity in your aged care facilities. This easy-to-follow instructions ensures a smooth experience, so you can focus on creating a relaxing and enjoyable activity for your residents. Take notes and make sure to remember the important details!

Step 1: Gather the Materials

Start by preparing two fabric squares of the same size, ideally 6×6 inches. Choose soft and breathable fabrics that will hold the scent well. You’ll also need fabric glue or adhesive dots and decorative ribbons for later.

Step 2: Glue the Edges

Apply fabric glue or adhesive dots to three sides of one fabric square, leaving the top side open. This will create a pouch to hold the dried lavender buds or rice grains.

Step 3: Fill and Scent the Sachet

Once the glue has dried, carefully fill the pouch with dried lavender buds or rice grains. If you desire a stronger fragrance, add a few drops of lavender scented oil directly into the pouch. Gently squeeze the sachet to mix and evenly spread the scented oil.

Step 4: Seal and Decorate

After adding the lavender or rice and scented oil, seal the open top of the pouch with fabric glue, ensuring the contents are securely enclosed. Get creative and add a personal touch by using decorative ribbons to embellish your lavender scent sachet. Tie a bow or create your unique design to make the sachet even more charming.
