What an interesting post! I do have lavender in my garden. Mostly I use it to make little plants for my trick or treaters. I didn't know it had all those properties. (The Romans might have liked it to keep fleas off themselves!) If it keeps fleas off pets, could it keep mosquitoes off us? Love your little sachets! Pretty colors and lace - priceless.
The sachets are beautiful! Yes, lavender is so soothing. I have a lavender body oil, and I love the scent.
i lay my head down
on your lavender post

What an interesting post! I love lavender and have lots of it in my garden. I dry lavender every summer.
The satches are beautiful, Yael, and the photos are great :)
Liebe Yael,
Lavendel ist ein Wunder der Natur.
Ich mache mir auch jedes Jahr Säckchen für die Schränke.
Danke dafür, dass du die Herkunft des Lavendels erklärt hat.
Liebe Grüße zu dir

Yael, I love them ALL--I cannot decide which I love the most. And I was going to compliment Uri on the photos, but since YOU made them, I bow to you and your beautiful takes!
Hi Yael,
only by reading about the lavender I'm already feeling so calm ! I can smell the lavender through your beautiful tiny pillows and it feels so good...! love, Cochava
Wundervolle Lavendelkissen hast Du gemacht!
Such lovely little lavender pillows! And very nice photos as well. How lucky you are to have all that lavender growing in your garden. It must smell heavenly!
What a beautiful celebration of lavender!!! I love lavender too! The lavender pillows you made are lovely! And so are the photos! :)
i love lavender pillows / bags anything lavender. my dear sweet aunt who lives in the UK makes hundreds of lavender bags and sends them to us as gifts. your lavender pillows are quaint and make me think of times past.
A beautiful post about a wonderfully versatile flower. I have a lavender sleep pillow and also rub lavender oil on my temples when I get a headache. In another garden, I had lavender planted between fragrant pink roses and it was gorgeous! Your pillows are quite splendid, Yael as are your pix. Hugs. xx
