Lovely Lavender and all it's Wonderful Uses!!!

Lovely lavender and all its wonderful uses (in your closet of course)!!

Lavender is one of those wonderful things found in nature that has so many uses. 1. A natural antiseptic
2. A bug repellent (who knew?)
3. A fragrance
just to name a few

So how can lavender work for you in your closet?

Loving lavender # 1 – a natural antiseptic
1 part lavender linen water
2 parts distilled water
Combine in your steamer and refresh your clothes, steam out odors and help save your clothes from harsh dry cleaning chemical (while putting a little more green in your wallet)
And please if you have to dry clean, use an organic dry cleaner (Thank you!!)

Loving lavender #2 – a bug repellent
—Yes as a bug repellent, use lavender sweater folds in between your sweaters to keep the bugs away!! Or sachets in your sock drawer!

Loving lavender #3
And finally as a fragrance! Lavender candles aside, all of the above uses grant you the gorgeous, soothing and calming scent of lavender!
