Godey's Toilet Sachet
This was copied from a similar item featured in Godey's Lady's Book,
May, 1859:
“LADY'S TOILET SACHET.
This article, which is decidedly novel in its plan,
will be found
extremely useful to ladies when traveling, as it is
capable of
containing every article required for the toilet in
a convenient,
compact, and portable form. The sachet contains
upwards of a dozen
compartments, or pockets, with the names of the
articles for which they
are destined marked upon them. The following
enumeration of a few
of these articles will afford an idea of the
usefulness of the sachet:
Soap, pins, tooth-powder and brush, nail-brush,
hair-pins, combs,
hair-brushes, ribbons, laces, etc. We have only to
add that the sachet is
made of brown holland, and trimmed with narrow red
silk braid. Each
division, or pocket, is edged with this braid, and
the name of the article it is intended to contain is marked on it in letters
of red silk. The whole,
when rolled up, is tied round by a red ribbon.”
My reproduction is made of brown linen and bound with silk satin
ribbon. It measures 23" long by 12" wide and there are 11
compartments. I made one for myself last year and I never go to an
event without it.
Also note that I can make this in different colors or materials upon
request.
