Care for yourself and nature
On Essential.blue I sell sustainable quality products that are good for you and for nature. And I blog about (DIY) nature products and my lavender garden in Spain.
Sustainable quality products
Products should not come from the other side of the world, but preferably from the neighbourhood, and they should be sustainable. That is why I started Essential.blue.
Lavender makes you happy
Lavender is good for people. It makes you happy and lavender angustifolia is soothing. I started in 2019 with a lavender garden in Spain. Our land in the Alpujarra mountains had been abandoned for 30 years. We try to make our land more resilient. That is more important than ever because of climate change. The lavender and wild flowers on our land attract many species of bees that are increasingly being squeezed out elsewhere.

Comfortable sheep wool from the local shepherd
While Europe imports wool from the other side of the world good quality sheep wool just around the corner has fallen into disuse. Therefore, in addition to making lavender products, I also started making slippers from sheep’s wool.
