Lavender Sachets
Handmade by yours truly from vintage linens and recycled buttons. The toile came from some beautifully made but faded vintage drapes from a Tennessee home. It has a wonderful mellow look. The sachets are filled with lavender buds and are very fragrant. If the scent starts to fade over time, simply gently squeeze the sachet to release a fresh burst of scent. Perfect for tucking in a drawer, closet, or car. Makes a nice little gift too.

Ben Franklin and Betsy Ross Visit OCHS
It's not every day we have a visit from Ben Franklin and Betsy Ross in our shop! Today Mr. Franklin and Mrs. Ross were visiting to do some programs in the area. They are history interpreters Ralph Archbold and Linda Wilde from (where else?) Philadelphia. When I googled them I found that they are also engaged to be married. Congratulations to the happy couple.
