Hi everyone, it's Sandee!
Do you have a particular gift giving tradition?
I have been making a small hand made Christmas gift for my neighbor ladies that live in the same building as I do for the past several years.
This year I am making them some monogrammed sachet bags.
I am going to be using some Helmar Craft Glue along with the other products seen here to create my sachet bags.
First, fold the bag in half and run a line of Helmar Craft Glue across the glassine bag and adhere some lace trim.
Next, use a rub-on to decorate the front of your bag. You could use a sticker too.
I used the Helmar Craft Glue to hold my charm onto the lace and then used thread to tack it down. I don't have to sew the charm onto the lace because the glue will secure it but I like the look of "I hand sewed this! " because it appears that I took more time to make it than I actually did!
(Just make sure to keep the bag open and not sew it shut. )
Then I add a line of Helmar Craft Glue right above the lace and lay my string of pearls over it. It really grabs hold of them and secures them easily!
To finish it off, add a ¼ cup of scented crushed potpourri to your bag, fold it back over and glue the flap back down to seal it in.
You can make lots of quick and easy sachet gifts for the upcoming holidays
