香包历史悠久，自古流传至今，是古代汉族劳动妇女创造的一种民间刺绣工艺品。佩戴香包的历史可以追溯到商周时期，据《礼记·内则》记载“男女未冠笄者，鸡初鸣，……，皆佩容臭。”这里的“容臭”就是指香包。到了明清时期，香包发展到了鼎盛，无论男女，皆可随身携带赏玩。近代，香包多半用于民间端午节的赠品，用以驱恶避邪，节日祝福。

端午节戴香包是流传千年的习俗。人们认为端午节佩戴香包可以避邪驱瘟，抵抗毒虫的侵扰。洛阳民间曾有“戴个香草袋，不怕五虫害”之说。李水琴香包外形新颖独特，有传统牡丹花、荷花、元宝、金鱼、蝴蝶、老虎头，也有抱脚娃娃等状。在用料上采用纯天然材质：绸、缎、棉、麻及各种颜色丝线，内部填充以棉为主，并配有苍术、细辛、白芷、薄荷、冰片等中草药香料。
