These are our first treasure baskets.
Scented teas from a David's Tea sampler box. Babies have a strong
sense of smell and so often we forget to stimulate this sense. I've
been giving Téa these to sniff since she was two months old. Our
favourites are strawberry rhubarb, orange, organic ginger and a nutty
mix.
Fabric of different textures in the same colour. We happen to have a lot of pink hankerchiefs and hand towels on hand, so I put together a basket with a cotton weave (with a lace edge), double gauze, terry cloth, microfiber, rayon, organza and tulle (not shown... that piece got lost!)
Brightly coloured ribbons. This happened by accident -- I noticed that Téa liked to reach for the measuring tape when I'm sewing for her, and I found these shiny ribbons from India while I was rummaging for notions, so here we are! This is a favourite.
