Cosy, sweet-smelling bed linen.

you could try some essential oil drops on either kitchen roll, a dried baby wipe or even an old flannel/pillow case, and fold amongst the linen. Try and avoid any stains tho on your linen from the oils.

Hanging it outside to dry works for me;)

I couldn't agree more.:T
Bedding that has been dried on the line, aired and straight on the bed is the best. :j

That's true. But I find the stored sheets & pillowcases lose that fresh smell. It's ok if they go back straight on the bed but I like to rotate my sheets. Might try some home made sachets from our lavender bush once I work out how to dry them to pop in between. I find the flanelette sheets need to be washed again before putting them on the bed before winter.

I agree re. the fresh smell of wind-dried clothes, but sometimes if people are very used to synthetic fragrances they need that little bit "extra". If so, you can try to add a couple of drops of May Chang essential oil in the conditioner drawer of the washing machine.

Mind you, I have found that over the years, after not wearing any artificial scented stuff (shampoos, cosmetics, deodorants etc) and not using any scented products around the house, I find even the mildest artificial smell a bit overpowering!
