They’re in full flower right now and there’s nothing better then their comforting odor in your wardrobe and bedroom. Browsing around I found some lovely lavender pads on Antonia’s site. I tried them myself immediately. Their pyramidal shape makes it easy to place them everywhere. Sewn with some leftover cloth you can leave them as they are or just embellish them with laces, ribbons or wool. As Antonia did I filled them with some grains of rice and the mandatory lavender flowers. The lilac pad ended up in my kitchen banishing unpleasant odors after cooking. A variety of cloth patterns allows you to get them matching with the room or place they are planned for. Offered with a jar of lavender salt* they are a nice little gift.
Antonia’s instructions are quite clear in pictures but if you don’t see exactly what to do then simply look at my Easter Chicks and sew the squares as described (without beak and legs of course).
