Making pretty things...

I just never get tired of it!!!

I'm fortunate in the fact that I have the time to make

these little treasures...

First a sweet image for you ~

To save the LARGEST size of my images:

Right click on the image.

Left click "OPEN LINK IN NEW WINDOW"

Then....Left click the image AGAIN.....
you will now have the FULL SIZED IMAGE.

Now you can right click it to "save image as"
and save it to your own computer.

I have a special order of two lavender sachets that have the same

"feel" as my recent cream/white needle books ~

PLUS my customer wanted to be able to replace the lavender buds inside

once they lose their fragrance.

SO, this is what I came up with!

It's a bit of a pouch....

with ties at the top.

Same layered linens and lace ~

My lavender insert is created from a loose weave scrim ~

that will let that wonderful fragrance out!

A few goodies I used ~

See how I left the top open and added a couple of seam binding ties?

And then I inserted the scrim lavender pouch ~

 Then I embellished it with a scrunchy seam binding bow, a few antique buttons and voila!

 I just love this tiny old bread tin...I keep pretty buttons inside.

 And now I'm ready to start the other sachet to complete her order!

I did cut out a few extras I hope to add to my Etsy shop in a few days too :)

I hope you've been having a wonderful week...

sometimes it's hard to squeeze a little creativity into our schedules,

but it's always so rewarding when we do!!!

Wishing you a GREAT Thursday dear friends,

hugs and love,

Dawn
