Mistakes...

..... I bought this....

When what I really thought I was buying was this...


A little bit of a difference in size.... and for some time I wondered what I would use it for.... when I had a light bulb moment



Lavender bags!.. but made from paper... I glued half way, poured in the lavender and then stitched together..
The small dotty die is the perfect size.. lets the smell out but keeps the lavender in!


I've another idea....so watch this space.

Absolutely BRILLIANT, Effie!!! What a clever and creative idea. I MISS you at "The New Nest"!!! Have you gone on FB yet??? If you do, be sure to email me so I can extend an invite. Cosmo is almost 7 mos old and is still chewing everything in sight. He discovered that he's tall enough to get into more things, so I'm on "constant watch"!!! He's keeping me busy for sure. I hope that all is well with you. I'm sending very warm "hugs"! ♥ Terri
