I did have a little pot of it for a while, but it finally died out and I've never found another to replace it. Lavender is my favorite scent always. I use lavender soap, hand creams, and if I had any fresh lavender I would do as you have done. What a great idea! You are very "crafty"! Have a blessed and wonderful day.Pamela M.

I apologize for being so late visiting.<br /><br />I have tried growing lavender. I even brought it inside in winter, but it died. I left it outside and it died. I got ONE small bloom from ONE of the seven different types I bought. I have a friend who made these lavender wands. She sent me one and I had it for about five years. You are SO lucky to have any blooms at all.<br /><br />Sorry to read about your lemongrass. I planted mine in pots. Maybe you should do the same and put the pots up high where your dogs won't get them. Of course, they may have caused you to not want to grow more of it anytime soon. I sure hope you see my comment sooner than I saw your post, dear.Bleubeard and Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10149710375520733752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4647919454370211644.post-54643451775792447482021-05-04T12:56:12.155-06:002021-05-04T12:56:12.155-06:00I have always wondered how those were done.

I always wanted a craft room, but with me downsizing through the years, it didn't work out. That's smart to make the weaving tight when the lavender starts to dry up. Oh, the purple ones are beautiful and my favorite color. You did a wonderful job on these, Holly.<br /><br />Happy month of May to you.<br /><br />~SheriRed Rose Alleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02685747099912989862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4647919454370211644.post-19338613452929372082021-05-03T07:55:22.918-06:002021-05-03T07:55:22.918-06:00I too love lavender, but I'm not very handy.
