Item details

Who had a hanky for every day of the week!? This pair of lavender bags are made from a vintage Sunday best child's hanky, illustrating the ideal way to spend a Sunday! Inside each one is nestling a little muslin bag filled with North Yorkshire dried lavender. On the front are children in the Sunday dressing up box dressed as Laurel and Hardy, or looking as if butter wouldn't melt in their mouths as a cute chorister and Mary. On the back is the cutest pair of frolicking lambs and a sweet baby rabbit saying its prayers. Lavender has been an old fashioned remedy for sleep for centuries, as well as being a natural way to keep moths at bay. Pop your lavender in a drawer or over a clothes hanger to keep clothes smelling sweet.This would make a lovely present for a Laurel and Hardy fan, for a vintage lover, or as a little virtual hug for a friend.

This little lavender bag measures 10 cm by 10 cm.
Inside is a muslin bag with dried Yorkshire lavender, and there is a hook for popping over a clothes hanger.
The bag is finished with my own embroidered name tag.

I like to reuse. Your bags will arrive wrapped in clean, recycled packaging from my hoard, and sent as Royal Mail 2nd class.

Hi there and welcome to my shop. Here you will find old embroideries, vintage fabrics and sparkling remnants made into something pretty and practical once again. I re-stock slowly but surely, so do keep coming back for a browse.
As I try to recycle where I can, your order will arrive wrapped in clean, recycled packaging from my hoard.
Thank you for visiting me at Folksy.

I have always loved the pictures on children's hankies, and its great to find them at car boots and jumbles. I love the way how this one charts how to spend the perfect Sunday, from singing in the choir, to dressing up! Its always nice to find new uses for them.
