One of the best wedding shower favours is the sachet. It can be bought or made at home. A sachet wedding favour is a small cloth sack containing dried flowers, tea, spices or wood shavings. Women and men use sachets in drawers or shoes to keep them smelling pleasant. Sachets can also be used for tea bags. The wedding shower planner can buy or make sachets. Both options are inexpensive.
One of the best places to buy wedding shower favours is at beau-coup.com. My particular favorite is their wedding dress sachet. The little gowns are about 7 inches tall and have sachets of lavender sewn inside. They also have bridesmaid dress sachets which are extremely cute and personalized tea sachets.
Homemade Sachets - Add an inexpensive yet personal touch to each guest's favour with a homemade sachet.
How to make sachets for-
inside contents – potpourri, dried vanilla, wood shavings with scented oils, cedar shavings, spices (cinnamon, cloves etc) or dried citrus peels. Different types of tea can be used with cheese cloth for a personalized tea bag.
cloth – buy some inexpensive white handkerchiefs, buy silk handkerchiefs at a local thrift store, buy a bolt of linen or satin and cut into small 6 inch diameter circles. Cheese cloth for tea satchets.

Personalize each sachet with the guest's name on the cloth – hint: you can buy stencils and black markers or fabric paint at the crafts store.
