What gifts can I make with all these herbs?

[paisley]

Hi crafty ladies! I was recently give a TON of dried herbs. There's a bunch of lavendar, some chammomile, mugwort, damiana, and something else I can't recall. What sorts of holiday gifts can I make with all this? I can sew and knit and I don't want to spend a ton of money on supplies. I made dream pillows a few years back so that had already been done. Any ideas?

Hot/cold rice things with lavender or chammomile would be nice.
Or sachet to put in lingerie drawers.
Or you could probably make some nice bath oils by soaking the herbs in oil- though I've never done this.

What about satin sleep pillows? I think that lavendar and chamomile are primarily used for these, but there's no reason any pleasant aromatic herb couldn't be used.

Thanks for the suggestions! I think I like the sleep pillows one best. What fabric would you recommend using for them? I've seen ones before that are made of this shiny soft, almost stretchy fabric. Is that satin? I thought satin was more stiff and this fabric had a more flowy feel to it.

PS, I love both of your sigs! :LOL
