DIY Strawberry Wardrobe Freshener
From the Blogger: "Use fabric scraps to make pretty little strawberry-shaped sachets that you can fill with lavender or potpourri to hang in your wardrobe or tuck in a drawer. They are quick and easy to make, so you can make them for all your friends, too! They'd make great gifts for those times when you need a little something, perhaps as a teacher gift or a hostess gift, or maybe you could even pop one or two in a pamper hamper."

I will have to make several of these strawberry-shape wardrobe fresheners. Perfect stocking stuffer idea. They make great pincushions too if part of the stuffing is very fine steel wool instead of a scented filler. I imagine the strawberry would be a great gift idea if paired with a padded hanger.
