Challenge 76 - Lavender bag

As we wandered the streets of Delft, in the Netherlands, admiring the beautiful canals and intricately adorned buildings we spotted some lavender growing in a pot, surrounded by locked up bikes. We plucked some stems and stuffed them into a paper bag. The bag was put in one of the cupboards of the caravan and forgotten about but smelt lovely each time the cupboard is opened. Recently, I found a small draw-string material gift bag and transferred the lavender into it. Our Nana has also made us one as well to hand up in the caravan to give it a nice smell. The other is now placed in with the bedding so whenever we have clean bedding it smells of lavender, a relaxing smell and a reminder of our trip to the Netherlands.
