Sprinkles of Lavender

I am lucky to get my Lavender from France as my daughter's mother in law and her friend are blessed with lavender in their garden and were so kind to keep some for me, so I had a fresh batch in August.
When I am busy making these hearts and boots my whole house smells so nice and fresh for days.










 The bodice of this little dress is filled with Lavender.




 Here you can see the fine handwork that went into this vintage table cover.
I was lucky to find this one in a charity shop in Bath, England.



 Here I wrapped up a small French soap, I will have to get more when I go next month.




 I bought some flat pearls last time I went to Dragon Market, which is a mall that sells all things made in China.




 These are from an auction a few years ago. Auctions are so thrilling, I sit there with a numbered paddle and get so exited that I usually buy things I don't really need, but the items are so nice and cheap and can't be left behind.

Frugal Friday party, be sure to come and visit.

I hope you all have a nice weekend and a happy Thanksgiving!
