Having had some success with the China Asters, decided to dry the Iris flowers too.
The jar I chose previously had “Very Lazy Garlic” in it. The glass cleaned well enough but I could not get the smell of garlic out of the lid no matter what I tried. Fortunately the lid from my empty jar of marmite fits well and was much easier to clean!
It’s been decorated with a picture of Iris, Goddess of Rainbows, and I’m pretty happy with how they’ve turned out
Very Nice @IrisW , I know Garlic jars come in so many perfect sizes but to get the smell out is nearly impossible.
I use these jars that are from Marzetti’s Slaw Dressing, one because I buy it so often I have an abundance, and two because they are nicely sized for pretty much anything in my craft.
Good for you for repurposing your dried flowers, @IrisW- may they find a new life in your magickal crafting!
The picture of the Goddess of Rainbows is gorgeous- I can’t think of a better way to cover up the writing on the jar (although “Very Lazy Garlic” does sound like a powerful statement to label things with ). Gorgeous- thanks for sharing!
Definitely let us know when you find a good use for them! I wonder if dried Iris petals would be good in a bath salt mix?
