Today I have been making scented rice hearts! I love this idea of putting these little heart shaped sachets into the box and gifting them instead of box of chocolate. These are cute, practical and last much longer than chocolate (you know why!). Ok, ok… I did sneak in some chocolate in this box…

A gift box featuring handmade scented rice hearts in various fabrics, including a floral pattern, alongside heart-shaped chocolates.

And this is how. Cut few hearts in tissue paper (pic 1), stitch around leaving big enough gap to fit the chocolate through (pic 2). Once the chocolate is inside, close the gap by stitching on it (pics 3-4).

Step-by-step process of making heart-shaped sachets from tissue paper for gifting, showing a cut-out heart, stitching, inserting chocolate, and the finished product.

So now you know my secret ;-). Follow through to see how scented rice hearts has been made.
