Lavender vintage notions

There is something incredibly vintage and chic about lavender, whether it reminds you of French fields or summer or someone who wore it as a perfume. Nothing says 'homely' and 'heavenly' more than gorgeous little scented parcels strewn decoratively throughout the house.

As in most things, i have been making my own. Little lavender bags, adorned with ribbons, buttons and vintage notions. These look truly decadent on coat-pegs, hat stands, and every door-knob throughout the house. Which all means i'll have to get sewing pretty quicksharp!

This is one i haven't quite finished, but will get around to doing so soon. So much to do yet so little time.

An avid tea-drinker who likes Nutmeg in her coffee and warm lavender-scented quilts. She knits, crochets and partakes in random acts of craftiness (and kindness). She can often be found outside, in the garden with her faithful doggy companion, and a cup of tea. Reading is a pasttime that she enjoys muchly, so too is moving furniture around. She writes haiku about nettles, would like to swim with seals and become completely self-sufficient.
