The perfumed wall in wood and lavender is a natural, decorative and relaxing solution to refresh the summer environment with little. A few dry branches are enough, string and bunches of dry flowers to transform an empty wall into a corner of the atmosphere.
When it comes to Summer atmosphere at homeoften you immediately think of light colors, light and fresh. But the perfume can also make a difference, and surprisingly powerfully. A wall that tastes like lavender, decorated with simple materials such as rough wood and natural rope, manages to evoke deep sensations: calm, care, a sense of belonging.
There is no need to be an expert in DIY, nor invest in expensive decorations. Few elements are enough, perhaps already at home, and a pinch of creativity that gives shape to its taste. Old axes forgotten in the garage become frames, dry branches turn into poetic supports, while dried lavender brings with it all the light of the summer hills. And it is also a great way to give new life to simple materials, collected carefully or stored with affection over time.
Where to position it (and why it works)
The scented wall can be set up in different points of the house: in the entrance, to welcome with a note of freshness; in the bathroomwhere it combines humidity with a relaxing effect; or in the bedroomto create an intimate and calm area.
It works because it combines the visual and olfactory aspect: the raw wood absorbs and spreads natural perfumes, while lavender (even if dry) continues to issue its aroma for weeks. In addition, the game of spagins, knots and hanging bunches creates visual movement, breaks the monotony and furnish without invading.
How to make it in a few steps
The ideal is to start from a simple basis: one raw wooden tableeven an old disassembled shelf can be fine. It can be left natural or dealing with a slight sanding to remove splinters.
At this point, it is cut of the Juta or twine rope often In different lengths. With small nails or hooks, the ropes are fixed to the table, letting the free leaders dangled down or creating crossed diagonals.
At the heads of the ropes they can be linked:
- Mazzetti di dried lavender with well preserved flowers
- twigs of rosemary or thyme For a more decisive perfume
- small linen bags filled with flowers, spices or citrus peel
The composition can be symmetrical or completely irregular: the best effect is the slightly spontaneous one, not too calculated.
How to keep it fragrant for a long time
Even if dried flowers maintain the aroma for a long time, over time they can lose intensity. To revive the perfume, just spray one every now and then mixture of water and lavender essential oil directly on the bunches.
Another idea is to insert some cotton pumps, well hidden cotton, among the knots. If you use fabric bags, you can easily fill and replace every two or three weeks with new fragrant ingredients.
The location is also important: it is better to avoid areas too humid or exposed to direct light, which accelerate the loss of perfume.
A detail that changes the atmosphere
Making a fragrant wall with natural elements is a simple gesture that really changes the perception of a space. Not only decorates it, but animates it, makes it more alive and personal.
In a hot summer, where you are looking for Lightness and breath in the housesuch a wall becomes a visual and sensory reference point. And every time you pass by, even just touching it with your gaze, an idea of care, attention, light beauty is back.
The scent of lavender, especially in the more quiet hours of the day, spreads in a fair but enveloping way. The raw wood texture gives a reassuring, almost familiar tactile sensation.
And the rope, with its simple weaves, adds a rustic note that makes everything more authentic. After all, a branch are enough, a few flowers and a little string to transform any wall into a small corner of summer.
