Festive Beeswax Sachets

1. Set out some Christmas cookie cutters on a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. If you don’t have cookies cutters, you can use small pastry molds instead.

2. Add pieces of fragrant dried flowers to the bottom of your cutters to add color and fragrance. Mine were pressed flat in my dried flower press over the summer. Dried flowers and the essential oil needed for fragrance

3. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of essential oil (I used lavender) to the melted wax and swirl in. If you use a crock pot, protect your work surface with paper for wax spills.

4. Spoon melted wax, using an old plastic measuring cup, into the cookie cutters on parchment paper, letting the first layer of wax solidify before adding more. Wax will bleed out from the edges of the cutters onto the parchment. That excess can be gathered up later and returned to your crock pot for reusing. The wax will bleed out from the cookie cutters at first and then solidify

5. Pour another layer of wax into the molds and drop in more dried flower pieces. I made my sachets about 1/2 inch thick.

6. While still soft, insert some dowels into the top of the shapes for hangers or leave them whole.

7. Place in the freezer until hard for several hours. Remove the cutters when firm and cold.

8. Take out dowels and insert hangers (I used raffia) if desired. The dowels can be tricky to remove, but I just continue to rock them back and forth in the hole until they release.

9. To clean any excess wax on the cookie cutters, boil them in water in a large pot. Place in freezer to harden.

The whole house was very fragrant when I made these and the smell lingers after hanging them in your closet or placing in drawers with linens or lingerie.

Feeling Stressed? Watch this . . .
Studies have shown that listening to the sound of beavers enthusiastically munching on white cabbage can temporarily reduce stress levels by up to 17%. You're welcome!

Ever wondered what a beehive is actually made of?

Ever wondered what a beehive is actually made of?
It's made of one of our favorite things . . . BEESWAX! Honeybees make beeswax in special glands located on their bellies. Then they use their tiny feet to scrape it from their bodies, chew it up a bit, and make perfect hexagon cells in which they store all their most prized possessions, honey, pollen, and their babies!
