Our Summer is whizzing by, much to my dismay. The heat and the constant humidity  is somewhat draining...difficult to get all the To-Do lists done. How are you coping with the heat? Share some of your tips below, leave us a comment, we would love to hear from you.

Simple Pleasures - Hanging Sheets out to Dry..

One of the Simple Pleasures of Summer is to be able to hang your sheets outside to dry. The smell of laundry which has been hung outside to dry is so nice. Sometimes we're out
of time, and it seems easier to throw the laundry in the dryer....

Here at Camellia's we have a true Lavender Linen spray, which you mist on your pillow before going to bed.

Yes, Summer is truly wonderful and you should feel lucky if you live in the Country, and can hang your laundry outside in the fresh air. Plus you're helping to save the planet by saving energy.

Sleep, Time & Cotton Nighties

I wonder what's in the old armoire? This armoire is a yard-sale project which I recovered in Waverly Toile fabric panels.

As ones gets older, Sleep, or lack thereof, becomes a priority.

Promise yourself the Gift of TIME. Just 30 mins. at the end of the day will do wonders. Change into a fine cotton nightie or some cotton Pj's, and settle down for some R & R. Our Nighties are ever so soft and the ultimate in comfort. Cotton breathes, so if you're going through the M stage, cotton is what you should be wearing. You know the M stage, on again , off again with the covers, open the window, close the window, flap flap..flap..flap.. Which fool put the Fan into storage for the Winter? Go into the Stoargae shed and get it , Now!!..What do you mean,No?....

Sound familiar? Feel free to leave comments as to how you are coping with this.

We have many styles available, this is a Nightshirt, with slits on the sides. We stock large and extra large, all styles are roomy.

This is a new faux peony, flowers in a vase beside your bed will always cheer you up. If you travel lots, and can't take care of fresh flowers, this peony and you are made for each other.




Try a proven remedy to help you Sleep - Lavender. Spray some on your pillow just before
drifting off. Come into Camellia's to get some.
