Lavender sachets and the LP

Finally I am back from my holidays in my hometown. It has been almost a month, but there was simply too much work and not enough time to blog about anything.

During the past weeks I have been incredibly busy making these christening favors for my niece Anna’s baptism, and honestly… I am completely in love with them.

Aren’t these the cutest little houses ever?

Using fabric scraps from my stash, I managed to sew 150 tiny fabric houses, following this amazing tutorial by Retro Mama.

Each little house is filled with polyester stuffing and fragrant lavender, turning them into sweet handmade lavender sachets.

If you do not feel like making your own, I will soon create a listing in my Etsy Shop for anyone interested in purchasing these cuties.

All photographs were taken by my lovely and adorable husband, who has also recently published his very first LP.

You can listen to a preview here:

The LP contains ten audio commentaries inspired by ten poems by Christos Laskaris.

I really missed blogging, and I have so many things I want to share with you soon.
