For a relaxing gift, make this soothing and scented lavender pillow.

What you'll need:

  • Dried lavender
  • Fabric
  • Sewing maching or needle and thread
  • Flax seeds or dried lentils
  • Measuring tape

 

How to make it:

  1. Decide how big and what shape you'd like your pillow to be.
  2. Cut out two pieces of fabric in the size that you've choosen (make sure both pieces are the same size).
  3. Sew these pieces together, right sides facing (so the excess fabric will be flipped inside the pillow, showing a nice closed seam on the outside).
  4. Leave a three-inch opening on one side through which you can stuff your pillow.
  5. Turn the fabric inside out.
  6. Fill with flax seeds or beans and dried lavender.
  7. Hand sew the opening closed.
