Burlap's you thought I was crazy....


An update on my burlap adventure!  


Started with this....

Washed and dried and dyed pink....Took the dye well didn't it?




Then the fun part!  This will be the front of the Burlap and Roses Tote bag!
Still not done...but almost!

Lavender and Roses....


My back room has turned into a garden of lavender and rose smells today!

I wanted to make sweet smelling sachets for Etsy and yes, for my own closets and drawers (who could resist?).

So out comes the herbs and flowers.....


I just had to use the antique sewing machine, since I was using all vintage fabrics....


Made stacks of cut sachets.....


Ah...and then the fun part! Stuffing them with lavender and roses and a few with peppermint and lavender.


Then a vintage box full of finished sachets!



The room smelled heavenly! I put one of these into my pillow case and had very sweet dreams.

And we know I had help right?  I threw some catnip into a shipping box and PJ was a happy kitty for hours!
