Because my mother loves birds so much, this heart sachet came together easily, too. I've wire-wrapped a vintage brooch that had a bird on it, then laid it over the feather "ribbon" that was diagonally sewn across the heart. The ribbon is a vintage piece from my grandmother's old sewing trims and is attached to the brown dupioni silk heart at the top center. Last, but not least, is a bird egg dangling at the bottom.

Heart Number Six Sings a Song of Love...
This is one of my favorite heart sachets....simple, but still sings a song. I have a couple of bolts of this fabric because I flipped over it when I saw it. I bought a couple of yards to begin with, then I went back and bought it all! And when a new bolt of it came in, I bought it, too! Sick, isn't it??? Don't tell anyone.....

Heart Number Five....is just Heart Number Five!
This heart sachet is made from a yummy iridescent hot pink and red dupioni silk fabric which I ALWAYS keep in stock. I've used it for linings of handbags, trims on dresses and headpieces, and as the decorative outside fabric for clutches....I just love it. The beaded lace was made from hot pink iridescent beads and other yellow gold and hot pink beads. Hanging from the bottom of the heart is a handmade heart-shaped charm painted pink with a tiny little cherub lying under a rounded blog of glas to magnify the cherub. This little charm was the inspiration for the whole design! I have affixed a vintage earring with iridescent rhinestones to the top center as its focal point.
