How To Create Eye Mask For Kids On Mothers Day

This eye pillow, filled with lavender and flaxseed, is a Mother's Day gift that actually takes something away: stress!

Ingredients:

• Flannel-backed satin fabric
• Glue
• 16-inch length elastic
• Funnel
• 5 tablespoons flaxseed
• 3 tablespoons dried lavender
• Black fringe fabric trim

Method:

1. Cut two pillow pieces from flannel-backed satin .
2. On the satin side of one piece, use tacky glue to attach rickrack edging and two 2-inch lengths of black fringe fabric trim eyelashes.
3. Trim the fringe if necessary.
4. Run a line of glue around the flannel-side edge of the other fabric piece, leaving an inch-wide gap (shown in photo A, marked by waxed paper).
5. Glue the ends of a 16-inch length of elastic to the flannel .
6. Lay the other fabric piece on top, satin side up, and gently press the pieces together.
7. After the glue dries, use a funnel to pour 5 tablespoons of flaxseed and 3 tablespoons of dried lavender into the opening  and glue it closed.
8. Before using the pillow, heat it in a microwave for about 20 seconds to warm the flaxseed and release the lavender scent.
