You can do eeeet! Drawer liners!

Beautiful, scented drawer liners can create a yummy smelling little resting place for your oh-so-cherished garments.
I recently found these beautiful drawer liners at www.hammocksandhightea.com.



Even though they are uber-pretty, they are on the pricey side at $25 each, which got me thinking that it might be worth it to research making one’s own. And when I did, I realised that making your own drawer liners couldn’t be easier!
You will need the following easy to find items:

  • A spray bottle
  • A teabag
  • Clove oil (the tannins in the teabag & the clove oil protect your clothes against mould and dust-mites)
  • Your favourite essential oil(s)
  • Some acid free paper

And these 5 simple steps:

  1. Cut your paper to size. Personally,I like it when my drawer liners fold up slightly on each side.
  2. Fill your spray bottle with warm water and allow your teabag to soak in it for 3 minutes.
  3. Add three drops of clove oil and 3-5 drops of a heavenly essential oil of your choosing (my favourite is vanilla tonka bean from The Body Shop) and then mix it up nicely.
  4. Now spray your sweet smelling potion onto the paper, bearing in mind of course, that if you spray too much on each sheet, the paper could loose it’s shape.
  5. Leave your sheets to dry (a warm sunny day and/or room will help to speed up the process)

And TADAAAAA! You now have your very own, home-made-with-love drawer liners.
