with a slipstitch.
Day Dream Pillow: An afternoon nap calls for an herbal eye pillow
scented with chamomile and neroli. To create the filling, follow the recipe for the
eye pillow, but substitute dried chamomile flowers for the lavender buds and
infuse the mixture with drops of neroli essential oil instead of lavender. Then wrap
the filling in soft purple satin and tie with a swath of sage silk.
6
Tangerine Dream Pillow: For this citrusy version, follow the recipe
for the eye pillow, but leave out the lavender and double the amount of flax seeds.
Skip the lavender oil and drizzle in tangy sweet orange essential oil. Choose a
bold graphic print in a jazzy orange and yellow, then finish off your pillow with
an orange satin ribbon.
6
Wildest Dreams Pillow: Escape from it all with an exotic clove
bud pillow. Just follow the eye pillow recipe, but instead of lavender buds fill
the pillow with flax seeds only. For a robust aroma, trade the lavender essential
oil for drops of clove bud. Then wrap the filling with zebra-striped cotton and
cinch with a scarlet sash.

Wrap the peach ribbon around
the periwinkle sash to finish off
the look. Then tie a petite bow
and trim the ends. Naptime!
