Prim Wreath Stitcheries- Corn Cozies & Mug Mats

Corn Cozies • Ice Packs • Scented Mug Mats & Trivets • Candle Mats • Coasters • Sachets •

Keyboard & Mouse pad wrist rests, Bean Bags & even a pillow for my Granddaughter’s Barbie Doll!

Those are just a few of the things that you can make with the ITH Corn Cozy Sets. But guess what? Those little corn bag liners also make pretty cool sachet, soap and seed bags! I have a ton of test squares and decided to use some of them for little salt scrub and milk bath bags for gift giving.  Print the instructions for adding to the bath, punch a hole in the corner, string a ribbon through, tie around the bag and you’re done!  I added some extra length to the top of the bags so I could have more of a ruffled look at the top when I tied the ribbon.

 

I've also added a couple of milk and salt bath recipes to the Hoop & Holler recipe section should you care to use them for gift giving! Since we live in a dry climate, we're always fighting dry skin, the milk bath recipes are my absolute favorite and are so nice for soothing dry skin!

Happy Stitching!

Rice Filler Recipe for Scented Mug Mats & Trivets

3 cups rice
2/3 cup dried Rosemary
1 cup cup Star Anise, broken into pieces
1/2 cup dried orange peel
8-10 drops Cinnamon Oil or more if you prefer a stronger scent
Mix together, store in a glass air tight container, shake twice daily to mix the scents. Best if made a couple of days in advance.
Use 2/3 cup per 6x6 corn/spice bag.

 

I like using herbs and fillers like anise and orange peel with the oils because they help absorb the scent, making it last longer.
