Here are 10 very simple ways to use your fragrance lavender buds to bring that beautiful scent into your home. Sprinkle on Carpets Sprinkle just a small on your carpets before you plan to vacuum. This will help both your carpet and your vacuum to smell great. Lavender Infused Oil Lavender oil can be used on sore muscles, used on itchy bug bites, used on dry patchy skin, burns. To make your own lavender infused oil fill a small jar with dried lavender sachet bud, cover with oil, such as olive, sweet almond oil, avocado oil or jojoba oil. Let sit for 4 weeks and shake occasionally. I stick mine by my coffee pot or pantry where I will see it to remind myself to shake it. If you stick a date on when it will be done that always helps to remind you when to strain out the lavender and begin using it. You can also add a tablespoon of this to a nice hot bath to soak away the stress. Lavender Bath Salts You can add 1 cups epsom salt, 1/4 cup dried lavender sachet bud and a few drops of lavender essential oil to create your own bath salts. Simply sprinkle in your bath water for a beautiful and relaxing bath. Bug Repellent Not your grandmother's moth balls you can use lavender as a insect repellent. Place your lavender sachet where you want to keep insects out. Gift Wrap Decor Add a little extra on your wrapped gifts by including a sachet with your wrapped gift or attached to your gift bag. Drawer Sachet Add dried lavender sachet bud to your drawers. It will make you feel good to open your drawers to smell the fresh scent. Natural Car Air Freshener Make up a sachet and place it in your car for a natural fresh scent. Sleep Aid Fill a sachet bag with dried lavender sachet bud and stick it underneath your pillow or next to your bed. Dryer Sachet Simply fill an organza bag with dried lavender sachet buds, tie tightly, toss in the dryer, and enjoy your naturally scented laundry. These little sachet bags will hold their scent for about to 10 loads in your dryer. Then replace with new dried lavender sachet bud. Stinky Shoe Fixer
Fill a couple sachet bags with dried lavender sachet buds, and place in those stinky shoes, to help diffuse odors.

Ive been growing lavender for a few years now. I normally put them in organza bags. But was looking for something else. Unfortunately to make the lavender oil and bath salts it would cost quite a lot of money.
