And they are lovely. Such a fresh smell, better than any lavender or perfumed satchets.

Uni, don't know where Chookie buys hers but have you seen those cedar flowers in gift shops?  I'd just pull off a couple of petals from one of them.

LOL Karen, I'm sure Judy means after you've purchased them, don't you JD?  :D
You can buy cedar chips at barbeque and outdoor stores.

 :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D   I wondered what I had done Karen  - of course I meant buy the flowers first then pull the petals off but it's probably cheaper to buy the other chips the girls mentioned  ;)
