Dryer Sheets for Purse Odors

If I go to a thrift store or garage sale, I love to look at purses, lol, and so when I find what I like I purchase it take it home. Then I find the fabric softener sheets that you can buy at any store for your drying clothes in the drawer and cut them into a few strips and put a strip into each zipper pocket or compartment. I leave it in there for a day or two depending on odor and the next time you check it will help the odor incredibly! Then toss the sheet in the trash and it will help that odor too! Awesome huh? Thanks for reading and considering maybe trying it too:-)

Running it thru the dryer on no heat works just as well, I've found and it doesn't use the harsh chemicals and fragrances found in dryer sheets

Cool. I heard to put them in shoes and they help with bugs in the summer also.

good tip, thanks. I also put them in my car especially if I let someone smoke in it. They take all the musty smells away.
