Halloween will be here in less than a week.  I guess, you can tell it’s one of my favorite holidays.  I took a walk this morning to gather the ingredients for my sachets.  Sachets are little bags of dried flowers or perfume that you can easily put together and tuck away in your drawers or purse.  They keep things smelling oh, so nice.  You can make them as party favors or Halloween give away items.  Some smells are very comforting like lavender, pine, sage – all of which (not witch) can be found within a short distance of your home.  DO NOT take anything from a neighbor’s yard. There are LOTS of crazy people out there!  Besides, the fun is walking around and finding all the things around you that smell good.  You might even turn it into a school project: what healing herbs/plants can be found here.  It’s AMAZING what can be found in our region of the country. Don’t underestimate this region because it is the way it is.  There are many kinds of gardens and they ALL have special properties.  🙂 Have fun exploring, collecting, and creating!
