Lavender Loveheart Brooches

Maybe you've seen the making of these little hearts in a previous post, maybe not.
This is the finished product, modelled and shot and in the shop!




Silky to the touch, sweet-smelling, girlie, lavender-filled lovehearts that you can carry with you all day long, pinned to your top, jacket or even your bag .




The colours: dusty rose pink, bright red, mellow burgundy, rusty orange and caramel brown.




I'm a big fan of lavender as well as lavender sachets.
 I think I was hooked when reading about  the long list of healing and therapeutic properties of the herb.




I've been meaning to make a special post about it for some time -and one of these days I will...




Until then, here's the skinny:
Lavender is well known for it's calming, soothing properties but it's actualy also a tonic and a stimulant and is used against exhaustion .




Anti-stress and anti-depressant, it relieves anxiety and can even help balance mood swings.




There's so many uses that the list seems endless......
......I'll have to make that post soon.

  6. Your hearts are awesome! I loved the lavender part in them, and more precisely the fact that they have a secret agenda - to calm you down... I am a fan forever :))

  8. This is such a great thing for those who are allergic to perfumes. Everytime I put on perfume I sneeze, this would definitely be an alternative!
