This webpage is to showcase my hand-crafted products that I produce right here in my kitchen in Kilcoole, Co. Wicklow.  

My products include soap bars, body butters and lavender pillows & lavender sachets, while also reigniting my love of making candles!!  

There are a few reasons I chose to base my range around the lavender, some that were easy and another that is more complicated answer!!

​The easy answer is that I love its scent, I love the look of a field of lavender and of course purple is my favourite colour, which makes it the perfect match for me! 

​Another reason is that lavender is an age-old remedy for calming and soothing the nerves, improving mood and relaxing muscles.  It can also be used to aid and induce restful sleep.  Why wouldn’t you want to capture all that in some beautiful hand-crafted products!!

The more complicated answer is that I have suffered from social and general anxiety for most of my life and for a time I also added depression into the mix for a few years!! Individually they can be tough conditions to live with but all together they can be overwhelming!! So during that time, with the help of therapy and my fantastic family, I decided that I wanted to find a way to make an income for myself and try to achieve a life style that would positively impact my mental health!!  

And so, Lavender Crafts was born...
