relaxing eye pillow
you will need:
about 1/4 yard of brocade or other nice fabric (nothing too flimsy or
it won't
hold together)
enough flax seeds to fill your pillow (you can buy these in bulk at a
lot of
natural food stores/co-ops)
dried lavender & chamomile
funnel
what to do:
cut the fabric into a piece about 6-7 inches long and 8-9 inches wide.
fold
fabric in half inside out. pin and machine sew (you can hand sew of
course,
it just takes a bloody long time) -- the goal is to make a little
rectangle
with a small opening at one end large enough to stick the end of a
funnel
into. turn right side out.
pour the flax seeds, lavender and chamomile into a bowl and mix
thoroughly.
fill the bag to your desired fullness with this mixture. if some of it
isn't
going through you can use a chopstick and help it along a bit. sew up
the
hole in the end when you're done.
