This is wrapping paper. My gd helped me and we put new paper liner in my dresser drawers. Under the paper you sprinkle baking powder scented with essential oil, I used Lavender, of course. I got this idea from some old print outs from Brancante Home, it's one of her puttering ideas. Now I'm going to do the same thing in my bathroom drawers. I also decluttered and reorganized the drawers while I was at it. I wanted the drawers to not be too full so I could see my beautiful paper, so I put the extras in a storage box in my closet. If I don't end up using those things I will eventually get rid of them.

Wonderful idea Linda, and it looks beautiful too! Love, Paula
What a great idea!! Why baking powder? How much essential oil do you use? I really can't wait to try this idea, thanks for posting!
Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment yesterday - it's always so good to see you!

Barb, She didn't say way baking powder. As far as amounts I had about 1 tsp. per drawer with a few drops of oil. I had to make a second batch for my bathroom and I put a little more oil in that one because I wanted to make sure I could smell it. So you just have to try it and add more if it doesn't seem like enough, we're talking drops though. My bathroom smells wonderful. Linda
Very pretty! I still check in on her blog now and then. She pretty entertaining!

What a great idea. I will have to try it after my Crabtree and Evelyn drawer liners lose their scent. I put them in my suitcases too, keeps them smelling fresh. I bet the baking soda scent wouldn't work very well in a suitcase, huh?
Janet, It's baking powder, not soda. I imagine it would be kind of messy for a suitcase, but you could just put some oil on a cotton ball and put that in your suitcase. Linda
