TAKE A COTTON SQUARE
Tho.-e little cotton squares you
use to apply lotions and face pow
der and to remove nail polish are
)ust the right size for making gay
sachet gifts. For a trousseau or
shower gif nothing is more lux
urious-looking. "though it costs
mere pennies, than sets of sachet
"pillows", made of scraps of pas
tel satin, trimmed with sequins or
seed pearls.
Hang two on a white satin rib
bon-wrapped hanger. Make a strip
of them connected with narrow
baby ribbon to lay among lingerie
in a dresser drawer. Put one or
two into a package of gift hand
kerchiefs for a bride-to-be. Add a
few to accompany a gift of match
ing nightie and slip. Put one with
each pair of gift stockings. For the
bride, make one all in pale blue
with a lace edge and tiny safety
pin sewn to one corner. She may
then wear it as the "something
blue", sewn inside her slip front.
Make pink or blue satin ones to
tuck in with a pretty baby gift.
Sachet gifts are easy to make
and the perfect little "extra" to
accompany a more impressive gift.
Use two of the little cosmetic
squares. Sprinkle sachet powder
between them. Cut satin ribbon
scraps one-quarter inch larger all
around than the squares. Stitch
all around, leaving a small open
ing for inserting the cotton. Turn.
Insert cotton, blind-stitch the
opening. Or you might simply pink
the edges of the satin squares.
Trim with bits of lace, tiny arti
ficial flowers, beads, seed pearls or
sequins. If you've a flair for hand
painting, use textile paints to
draw small forget-me-nots, bows,
leaves, hearts, etc., and accent your
