A craft, food, fashion, home & shopping blog

Happy Monday everyone!  The hubby should be home in a day or two and we're very excited.  I haven't been able to do much crafting but I did make these sweet buggy lavender sachets last night.
I sell sachets in my Etsy shop in sets of three.  I had these two leftover and not one to let things go to waste, I turned them into dryer sachets for our house.
I hand-stamped a dragonfly on one and bumble bees on the other.  I'm not a huge fan of bugs in my outdoor life, but I do love them for home decor.

I can't wait to use these on our linens.  I love the smell of lavender and it does promote a restful sleep - something I could use more of!

This weekend is my boys' birthday party so the last few days have been tough in terms of crafty time.  I did manage to whip up some quick numbered, burlap lavender sachets, though.
I used a black fabric pen to trace each number onto my burlap bags.  Then I colored each one in.  I like that the ink isn't dark-dark; kind of gives them a more aged look, don't you think?!
I filled each one about halfway with dried lavender buds.
I couldn't decide whether or not to cut the drawstrings off so I just left them on for now.  I stitched up the top of each bag to keep the lavender from dumping out.

Super easy and so yummy to smell!
