I made up these sweet lavender sachets this week.
I filled them with lavender and flax seed. The flax helps
to give them a little weight and shape.
The first one is a soft faint lavender ,blue and green
batik. The color is very faint. I stitched on
lace and pearl beads. The top is layers of lace and roses
with dewdrop glass beads. A gold charm of a leaf and a
flower finish it off. Satin ribbon loop for hanging on a
The second one is made up of a silky file fabric with
hand embroidered tiny flowers and pearls surrounding
a lovely lace motif. The top is layers of lace and roses.
There is a sweet gold bird charm and a pink satin ribbon loop.

They all measure between 5 and 6 inches not including the loop.
They look nice just laying in a dish or hang them by their loop on
a door knob.

They all smell delicious and I nearly fell asleep as I was making them.
Shall try to get them listed by tomorrow. They will be in either my Etsy
shop or my wildflowerhouse shoppe!
But right now I need a nap.
Lavender will do it every time.....

I laughed about the *nap* qualities of lavender (it is true). Beautiful work (as usual). Wish we had smell-a-blog! :D :D

Gorgeous Sharon . . . just Gorgeous!
They are so pretty and I love the previous post about the silk embroidered flowers and sayings. It stormed here last night some people had hail damage and we are to get down in the 30's tonight. We turned the furnace back on. Have a wonderful weekend and Happy Mother's Day.
Exquisite! I've made sachets with lavender and eye pillows with flax but never thought about combining them.
WOW!!! They are gorgeous.
