I am so sorry that I never posted after promising to do so in my last post, though that most was a month an a half ago it really just seems like a few days, I couldn't believe when I saw that the date on that post was the 1st of August. Where does the time go?
I haven't done much herbal experimenting like I had planned unfortunately, but I am so in the mood for it now, that I am sure I'll find time for a bit of dabbling! For today I just wanted to share an old favorite, Lavender Linen Water. We washed sheets today, and I always spray my mattress, sheets, pillows and comforter down heavily with the linen water, it's such a homey soothing scent. The perfect scent for a day like today, the coolish breeze is floating in from my wide open window, and spreading the earthy lavender scent well round my room.
I love using this when ironing, the steamy warmth of the iron against the clean cotton is so soothing!
Lavender Linen Water
What you'll need:
Spray bottle
3 ounces Vodka
20 -30 drops organic lavender essential oil
Distilled water {you definitely do not want to use anything but distilled if you use this water for ironing}
Pour vodka into bottle, and fill the rest of the way with water. Add essential oil, shake slightly and you're ready to iron!
