We all send letters so infrequently these days that when we do, it should be a pleasurable experience for both the sender and the receiver. You can add a romantic touch to your personal correspondence by scenting your stationery. It’s incredibly easy. This recipe makes enough for you and your friends.

8 ounces unscented talcum powder

15 drops of your favorite essential oil or perfume

6 small, closely woven cotton or silk bags, open on one side

ribbon

notepaper and envelopes

1 plastic bag

In a bowl, combine the powder and perfume. Cover tightly and let sit for a day. Spoon the mixture into the bags and tie with ribbon. Place the bags in between the layers of notepaper and envelopes in a box and put the box into the plastic bag. Allow to sit for a few days so that the scent will permeate the paper. Makes 6 sachets.
