Third Monday Giveaway...



Good Monday morning! Hope you will start the week off by entering for this Monday's giveaway. Remember, you can enter now through Thursday and the winner is posted on Friday. What you will receive will be a surprise...the pictures are of items I have on the Cottage web shop. I've been working with French lavender this week. I love lavender and it really does seem to have a calming effect. Do you like lavender? It seems people either really love it or really don't. I use it for sachets in dresser drawers and in the closet because it's said to be a natural bug repellent. I use it in potpourri, I use it in linen water and my favorite way to use it is to spray my bed linens and pillow. We have a special blend at the Scented Cottage for linen/pillow mist...we use French lavender essential oil and make a soft sweet lavender scent. We always have a sweet, restful sleep.
My wish for you: Refreshing, peaceful sleep and sweet, sweet dreams.

I have this little cushion, which I love using every night because I add lavender drops to it...to make sure that I have a nice sleep.
I also add lavender drops on my little ones pillows, when they are anxious about something and can`t go to sleep...
It helps every time and it`s a very healing scent too!

Cathy, French lavender has a more floral or sweeter smell. Some lavender has a sharper smell.

Of course smell is subjective and what some love others don't.
