http://headsortailshome.blogspot.com/HEADS - "Pack"
Pack well this is an easy one for me this week because I just finished packing and making packages of stationery. I love to write, and I love stationery. It has been a long time since I have had a pen pal, I had them when I was a teen and such but one by one they all stopped writing which was sad but it happens. Therefore, I decided now to start writing to pen pals again and have found myself in the wonderful world of Fountain Pens and the proper paper for them.
Well I am officially addicted to fine paper and thanks to some wonderful friends have been given some great G. Lalo tablets (imported French paper very nice) and some Southworth Fine Parchment Paper in Ivory (can be bought at staples but still a nice quality). The only thing missing for me was scent. I adore scented things. Candles, Perfumes, shampoo…anything that smells good. Moreover, I used t scent my stationery all the time.
Therefore, I just spent the last two hours wrapping up and preparing 400 or so sheets of paper for scenting. I chose a few different scents and will see how it comes out. It takes a month for each package to be fully scented. I do not subscribe to the spraying chemical perfume on the paper. I prefer to infuse the paper with the scent. Therefore, I packed and will be eagerly awaiting my paper to be all done being scented. I told a friend about the project and she suggested that I add the scented paper to my list of things for sale on my Lady Ambrosia’s Creations site, and to my Etsy store. I am going to take her up on that and be offering it once some batches of packages are done.

Sounds like you've packed a lot of enjoyment into your sweet project. What a wonderful idea. I can almost see and smell the paper.
I have a passion for all things paper and office supply. Reading this post made me want to plan a trip to Staples. Just to smell things. New paper etc.
I know. I'm weird. =)
Have fun writing the pen pals!
Sounds like a fun project! What are your favorite scents?
