Nice smell

Hi all, I have a question. I am making a little felt cushion kind of thing. Now I want to put something in that smells nice. What can you suggest?The only thing that I can come up with is lavender.

I think any kind of dried flowers would be nice, or if you are filling it with stuffing, spray the stuffing in some kind of perfume you or the person whom it's for would like, or dab some aromatherapy oils on the stuffing too Happy
Depends what it's for, lavender would be good, if it's a sleeping pillow, but camomile is great for relaxing, so that's good if it's a sofa/chair pillow Happy

Good luck Happy

If I would just dry some roseleafs, would that work? Would it smell strong?

If you add some normal rose petals it would get all mushy I think, and the smell wouldn't last too long, if you added dried rose petals, that would be better.
To dry them, just hang the roses upside down and leave them for 1-3 weeks in a dark room to dry out properly.

So then I would fill it with filling and put some dried rose petals trough that?

Yeaaah it's so good.

Ooh I've got this AMAZING incense, it's called Cherrywood and it's the nicest thing ever but I don't know if you can get it in other forms.

I tried burning incense once and it just smelt like burning! I love the smell of cinnamon but hate the taste. There was a lovely pouch and oils of honey and vanilla I think it was I'm gonna buy some it was just sooo lovely.

Cinnamon Honey is awesome.

Another good smell you could try is like lemons oils, or lemon grass if it could be use to make someone feel more awake. Lemon also helps people remember things.
