Ribbon Sachet Kits & Butterflies
Filed under Kits, New Products, Rubber Stamps
I hope you’re all settling into your early Fall schedules. I’m happy to have all the pieces in place for a kit that I’ve been planning for quite a while. The kit includes all the components to make ribbon sachets (no sewing needed) including a custom sachet blend by The Queen’s Obsession Apothecary:
“Victorian Shadows” created exclusively for this kit. The recipe is inspired by an actual 19th century sachet recipe and has a lovely old-fashioned spiced aroma. The blend is made up of fragrant red rose petals, orris root, lavender buds, oakmoss and Bella’s own secret blend of spices. “In addition, to enhance the aroma of the blend I have also added various essential oils that includes rose, lavender, essence d’oud and of course, other secret essential oils! The sachet blend has been aged a full 6 months and is ready to add a symphony of scent to your altered art books, cards, letters or wherever else you’d like to place a fragrant sachet.”
Lots more pictures including many art samples are posted on the kit page.
It’s just one of those times when the stars align and similar-themed items (ordered months apart) show up at the same time. First are some butterfly stickers and rubber stamps, both in decorative tins.
There are also new reproductions of Victorian die-cut Butterfly Scraps and Butterfly Gift Wrap Scraps.
