How to scent your drawers

I normally use fabric conditioner, but DH did a few loads of laundry and while the clothes are clean they dont smell hos I would want them too. Is there anything I can put in the drawers to make the clothes smell nice. Im tempted to put a small lump of LUSH soap in the drawers!

A dryer sheet.

A few drops of essential oil on a cotton wool pad.

I use dryer sheets too.

We use a dove beauty bar, very cheap, stays in its box and smells lovely!

Cedar blocks that have been sandpapered.

Make your own drawer liners with fabric or wallpaper

Thank you everyone. Great ideas. I cant bear to wash it all again. Will try your ideas!

Another idea albeit old fashioned is dried lavender sachets. I used to love making them as a child.

Assume you mean cupboard drawers but I'm picturing a large pair of knickers Grin

I get those fragrance tester thingies from the perfume counters. Free and effective!

another vote for lavender (very Terry P as well!)
