I long to be in a house where the sheets smell of lavender

''I long to be in a house where the sheets smell of lavender''
- Isaak Walton

 

I am creating hearts.

Lavender filled hearts to perfume your sheets ...

 

… or your ‘smalls’ drawer.

Or to dangle prettily from a door handle to scent the room.
 

I love creating hearts.

The air is filled with the sweet perfume of English lavender

Picked from my own cottage garden.
 

 

I love to sort through mounds of lace to adorn the heart, selecting the exact piece

 

 

 

To complement the linen, which  is lusciously soft and deliciously slubby ... 

 

 

 

... and choosing a piece of vintage jewellery to embellish the heart.

 

 

 

Filling with lavender.

 

Completing finally, with linen buttons to secure a pretty ribbon loop.

The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot

be seen or even touched.

They must be felt with the heart

Helen  Keiler
