June DIY: Relaxing Lavender Eye Pillows

  • 1/4 Yard of fabric (you will have extra) Note: Make sure your fabric is washed and dried before you begin.
  • 1 1/4 cup flax seed
  • 3/4 cup dried lavender buds
  • 20 or so drops lavender essential oil

For each pillow, cut 2 layers of fabric measuring 4.5 inches x 10.5 inches. You’ll want right sides facing out for frayed edges or right sides in for no frays. Begin by sewing alongside a long edge, making your way all around, with a 1/4 inch seam allowance. Be sure you leave one short edge open to fill the pillow.

Mix the lavender buds, flax seed and a few drops of lavender essential oil in a bowl, then fill the pillow bag until it is mostly full. The measurements above should give you the perfect amount. Finally, sew the open edge closed containing the insides.

OOTM

Lavender essential oil has a scent that's a wonderful blend of fresh, floral, clean, and calm. It’s this dynamic aroma that has made the plant a classic for perfumes, soaps, fresheners, and beauty products!

Daily Habits with Lavender:

  • Unwind in the evening with a calming, Lavender-infused neck or back massage. Feeling tense? Add a little Peppermint and Frankincense!
  • Use Lavender as part of a bedtime routine by rubbing it on the bottoms of your feet and diffusing it next to your bed.
  • Make a Relaxing Lavender Eye Pillow (See the June DIY Resource for details!)
  • Rub lavender and coconut oil on the skin after time in the sun or make an after-sun spray or balm!
    • ¼ cup solid coconut oil (or liquid carrier for a spray)
    • 10 drops Peppermint essential oil
    • 20 drops Lavender essential oil
    • Optional: 15 drops Tea Tree essential oil for extra red/hot skin
  • Add 10 drops of Lavender to 1 cup of Epsom salt to a bath to create a relaxing environment. We also love adding Peace & Calming or Frankincense to the mix!

According to two-time Nobel Prize winner Linus Pauling: “You can trace every sickness, every disease, and every ailment to a mineral deficiency.” Trace minerals are incredibly important for our overall health. The body requires nearly two thirds of all the elements currently known to man in order to support optimal health, cognitive function and overall performance, and keeping these minerals in balance is a complex, yet incredibly vital task. Enter Mineral Essence - a great supplement for overall health!
