The Dog Days are Over . . .

I know, what does that even mean? The dog days are over! Well, that's the song playing while posting these NEW designs for the fabulous organic lavender dryer sachets.

It's a great tune I came across by Florence and the Machine. Goes something like. . .

Happiness hit her like a train on a track
Coming towards her still no turning back
 . . .
Leave all your love and your longing behind
You can't carry it with you if you want to survive
 . . .

And I never wanted anything from you
Except everything you had and what was left after that too
 . . .

The dog days are over
The dog days are done
Can you hear the horse?
So you better run

Eco Friendly Dryer Sheets from T-Shirts

Last year I made some of these for myself to see how long they'd last. Of course, tried them out with a select group of family and friends and wallah~I'm making them available because they are truly great! I've double secured the Washington home grown lavender buds and the fragrance is so calming and pleasing. Not going to tell you how long they'll last cuz you just won't believe me! Venture to say that, you'll be a happy camper.

Might I add...take them camping for a great sachet too!
