July is almost at an end, which means that the lavender fields of Provence have most probably peaked already. And while you might have missed that flight to Southern France to witness it — due to the numerous travel restrictions in place — you won’t have to miss out on the lavender.
Dave Sandoval Floral Atelier, through its DS Home line, brings a piece of these aromatic fields into your personal spaces with its new “Love Lavender” series. Beautiful, fragrant and long-lasting, the new product line – which can be bought in sets or separately – revolves around the sight and scent of dried lavender, complemented with a confection of home essentials such as oil diffusers, aromatic oils, linen spray and scented candles.
“With everything that’s going on, one can say that there’s definitely tension in the air – even if most of us are staying at home. That’s why we came up with products that don’t just spruce up space, but also induce a relaxing ambience,” says Dave Sandoval.
As some sleep doctors have noted in their studies, lavender is known for its anxiolytic (anxiety-relieving) qualities. Whether used for aromatherapy or taken orally (usually as tea), lavender can ease mild-to-moderate symptoms of depression, and may even help in curing insomnia and improving sleep quality.
Packaged in elegant lavender boxes accentuated by a customized lavender card, curated “Love Lavender” floral boxes whisk away their receivers to a sensorial journey. The journey starts with the sight of the exquisite arrangement of dried lavender, aptly accompanied by the elegant oil diffuser and aromatic oils. The journey is then punctuated with lavender linen spray for a more restful night’s sleep.
While many people would instinctively bring lavender scents to their bedrooms, thanks to their therapeutic effects on sleep, Dave reminds that these, too, are perfect for common areas of the home. “Whether it’s in powder rooms or the washrooms, or even living rooms and receiving areas, these lavender arrangements and products evoke elegance that you can see, smell and touch,” he says.
Dave, whose captivating floral designs usually make the rounds on social media after big events, adds that products under the DS Home line also pave the way for their customers to enjoy the beauty of his floral arrangements, even in the new normal. And thanks to the sight and scents of products like “Love Lavender,” and the floral arrangements and home essentials that DS Home will be launching soon, everyone can now bring a piece of Dave Sandoval into their home.
