I wanted to do something special for Kathleen sinceshe is celebrating the milestone of 100 White
Wednesday posts this week so I whipped up a
lavender sachet for her.
I thought it turned out pretty cute...tufted buttons and all.
These gorgeous lilacs are from a start that I dug up
at my son and daughter-in-laws home two or three
years ago and it is already big enough for me to
cut flowers off of. Amazing!
When I first put them in this container and filled it
with water it promptly all ran out the bottom all
over my windowsill. Oops..it is a planter not a vase.
So I put them in the white pitcher.
Please visit Katheen over at Faded Charm this week
where she is having some amazing giveaways to
celebrate her 100th WW post. Kathleen, please let me
know if you can handle the lavender sachet or not.
Would be happy to send it to you!!

But then somewhere in the back of my mind a little
voice is whispering to me that I think she may be
allergic to lavender. oh dear.
I think I remember her commenting about it at
one time, but it may have been someone else.
I need to find out asap.
I know this is a White Wednesday post and I have
lavender lilacs, but there is some white so I think
I am okay. lol.

What a kind and thoughtful gesture that is! I hope Kathleen's not allergic to lavender, that would be tragic!!! But it will look just as lovely if you have to fill it with something else:)
Very pretty lilacs Sandi~ Oh I'd be so sad if I were alergic to lavender!
My lilacs are just about ready to open!! Hopefully by the weekend!!
Have a Wonderful Day!

Hello Sandi... what a beautiful sachet you created for Kathleen!... I know she will love it... you may have been thinking of me and my allergies to lavender... (unless it is in the garden)... when I ordered those gorgeous hearts from you, I asked that they not contain lavender... your lilacs are so pretty!... I posted lilacs too, so irresistible!... xoxo Julie Marie

How very nice of you... why am I not surprised!?
Oh Sandi......you are so kind and "no" I'm not allergic, actually it's one of my favorite scents. I would be honored to accept your gracious and thoughtful gift.
Thanks so much and also for supporting me and WW.

I think that will be my project planting this year, a lilac bush. My mom gave me one when we moved in (her all time favourite bush) When we put our porch in it got demolished. I've always saved that spot for one and now it's got car parts in it, time for a move. Thanks for the inspiration. Love your little gift, and I do remember someone saying they have an allergy.
What a neat gift and so thoughtful-I know she'll love it!
Lovely sachet in any case! Very pretty lilacs. Happy 100th WW!
Oh my goodness, what a pretty post and such a thoughtful gift. Hoping she wasn't the one allergic to lavender, but if so, you can always fill it with rose buds or just polyfill. It is beautiful.
Hugs,

What a beautiful sachet! And how thoughtful of you to make Kathleen a gift! I am sure she will treasure it! Your lilacs are beautiful! I have cut each and every one of mine and enjoyed them in the house until they completely withered away! Now I'm awaiting the roses!
Best Wishes and Blessings,
Amanda
