Lavendar

If you would like to dry lavender, Harvest in morning so that you will get the best fragrance. Tie in a bundle and hang upside down in a cool, dry, well ventilated area, out of direct sunlight. It will take 7-10 days. Take down and rub the buds over a piece of parchment paper. Store in air tight jar in dark area. I use small ones such as you get the bulk yeast in or small jelly jars, baby food jars would work also. Use them to make sachets, or potpourri, could use in muslin bag in the bath as well. It is very relaxing, and smells wonderful.
