Using Your Dried Lavender

Now is the time to harvest some of the stems on your lavender plant to dry out. Put it in a small satchel bag and add to sock drawers, pillow cases, make eye pillows or place a satchel in the dryer and for go dryer sheets one bag can be used over and over again. Saves money and smells really good, and the scent on cloths lasts longer than dryer sheets ever do.

Thanks for the great tip about using lavender in bags for the dryer! I'd never thought of that! I am addicted to the smell of lavender! Best Wishes!

Excellent ideas. I'm new to Lavender. I had just planted some in our home in IN, before we moved back to MI. I left it in a pot on the deck and it's doing fine, if I bring it in the house for the winter will it survive for planting next sprint or should I plant it now? I'm in Zone 5a
