DIY Dryer Sheets
If you lack the ability or space to dry your laundry on the line, you can make your own handy dryer sheets that are reusable, eco-friendly and chemical-free. All you need is a cotton cloth (or cut a piece from an old t-shirt), a little water and a few drops of your favorite essential oils. To make the sheet, wet the cloth and wring out before adding five drops of essential oils, like lavender or orange, all over the cloth. Toss the cloth in the dryer during the last 10 minutes of the drying cycle for best results.

Wrap Your Soap
As a subtle alternative to a floral sachet, consider wrapping your favorite soap in fabric before placing it with your linens for storage. The scent will permeate the fabric but will protect your items from oils. Simply choose a strong-smelling soap, wrap in a scrap of fabric like a present, and sew the ends shut with a needle and thread. Repeat as the scent fades.
