Your body needs sleep, otherwise you are eventually going to crash. Instead of just using ordinary fluffy pillows, why not try something different, huh? I am talking about trying these diy herbal dream pillows. After already having shared how to make the diy fitted sheet and the diy duvet from flat sheets in earlier posts this year. The pillows will be a great addition.
The good thing about these pillows is that you can choose different herbs, to stuff your pillows with. For example, you can use peppermint, lavender, eucalyptus, rosemary, cedar, sage, chamoile and Mugwort. Different combinations of these herbs can be used to induce meditative dreams, restful sleep, to clear stuffed sinuses and even to provide headache relief. Instead of buying new fabric, you can just repurpose some old sheets and save yourself some money.

Here’s What You’ll Need:
- fabric
- needle
- thread
- sewing machine (optional)
- herbs of your choice
- chop stick, knitting needle, or crochet hook
- funnel
- tape measure
- scissors
So when starting your pillow from scratch, you want to measure out the fabric and then cut it. You can then move on to sewing the pieces of fabric together, however you have to leave an opening in one of the sides. You can insert a funnel into this opening and then stuff your pillow with your herb selection, before sewing up the opening to seal your pillow. Voila, the pillow is ready now all that’s left is the dreams.
