The Herbhanger is definitely a great way to keep your [clothes smelling fresh](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/boot-bananas) for a low cost. The Herbhanger is a [do-it-yourself craft](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/incense-holder-kit) that doesn’t take much time and your wardrobe will reap the benefits.

The Herbhanger is made by stuffing nylon stockings or any other sort of mesh with [mint leaves or potpourri](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/herb-storage-container) and then tying off the loose ends so the mint or good-smelling stuffing can’t escape. The Herbhanger is a great rainy craft that will make your house smell delicious.
