LAVENDER LINEN SPRAY

Add 3 or A drops pure lavender essential oil mixed into I tbsp flavourless vodka or other alcohol. Dilute with 100ml pure spring water and decant into an airtight bottle. Leave for two to three weeks before using. FOr a simpler lavender water that can be used straight away, simmer lavender flowers heads in water then strain and bottle. Note that the lavender heads will colour the water: it won't be clear like the first version. When ironing, sprinkle or spritz on to laundry.
