Bye, Lavander / myLot

August 24, 2023 11:20pm CST

My lavender wilted :( The scent is still there when I touch it. The fragrance stays in my hands, so I am having seconds thoughts. Should I toss it or make something out of it. Decoration? Any suggestions?

I have some lavender incense that I just love. I hope some other Mylotters have an idea for the lavender, because I’m not much help. Your idea of making it a decoration would be my thought for the best course of action.

Put in sachets and place the sachets in drawers, lavender keeps the moths away.

@Iam_jauntyjen This is what I always do with my lavender.

Maybe you can press them and attach it to a scrapbook or something, if it's something that you're interested in? Maybe you can bottle or put the wilted lavender in a pouch like some sort of potpourri.

You could make sure it is gone before you do anything to it.

You may be able to finish drying your lavender and keep it for a very long time while enjoying the scent. I found a website for you... I hope it helps.
