Lavender Crush and Soft Linens

About a year ago I began collecting soft, fine linens. I displayed some, but most, I kept in a cupboard, awaiting inspiration for a good use. Some time later, I fell in love with the scent of dried lavender buds. You can guess what happened next :)







I had so much fun with lavender sachets, I made some smaller sachets in different shapes using flour sacking and old buttons:



My whole studio smells like lavender...



...would it be weird if I decided not to sell them??

  2. Lavender is so wonderful, I don't blame you if you hang on to them. Somewhere on a blog I saw someone say that they keep lavender in their bathroom and when it gets steamy, the fragrance is released and the whole room smells heavenly!
