Finding a small old store paper dispenser
for wrapping goods was the inspiration for Emily & Ethlyn's
Potions & Perfumery to make small packages of herbs and
flowers for their pretend apothecary.
The working table where things are wrapped
and labeled. The paper on the old dispenser is only seven and a
half inches wide. Diane and Sarah made old fashioned labels for
the packages. The packages look and smell splendiferous in Emily
& Ethlyn's Potions & Perfumery, the corgyn's pretend
apothecary.
Tussie-mussies and bouquets are displayed
in E. & E's P & P. The old bottle is filled with Lavender
& Sugar. The bouquet on the right is made of daisies,
lavender, Queen Anne's lace, and clover.
Sweet peas and sage are on the paper
waiting to be wrapped. When working in the garden the delightful
fragrance of the sweet pea is carried on the breeze and can be
smelled all about Diane's garden. The ball of linen thread is
Diane's handspun.

clover tablecloth.
