Every month talented designers come together to participate in the Designer Craft Connection's Blog Hop. In supporting each other we support art. This month's project was to handmake something with love. One of my favorite things to give as gifts is lavender sachets. I grow my own lavender every year and after the bees are done I get quite a large harvest. I used the lavender to fill this button bags as a Valentine gift.
Instruction: Using a dinner plate as a template, cut a circle of cotton cloth (this will allow the fragrance to escape). Sew buttons on to bag in a much smaller circle being careful to leave a two inch border between buttons and top of fabric. When finished sewing fill with lavender or dried spice. Tie with ribbon and embellish.
Great scented creation!
