Lavender Love

On his way home from the beach this weekend, my husband stopped off at the Astoria Farmer's Market. He surprised me with a fresh bunch of lavender from Latitudes of Lavender. Awww....He knows what I love.


We discovered the lavender growers several years ago when we walked through the downtown market and I kept smelling fresh lavender. It took us quite a while to find them because we could smell the lavender 4-5 blocks away from where they were selling. It was so fragrant! We just followed our noses :).

It didn't take me long to divide up my lavender and spread it throughout the house. Each of the pictures below are part of the original bunch he brought home.....

A ten dollar bunch of lavender can go a long way to freshen up your decor!

Blessings!
