🫶 Weekly Witchy CHALLENGE - HandCrafting

Some of you already know, but I’ve been in the process of drying and harvesting my lavender (more pics in this discussion here). I decided to make a lavender wreath!

It took significantly more time than I thought it would (and a lot more lavender- twice as much as I had planned for! :joy:) but I’m happy with how it turned out.

I ended up just using the smaller vine wreath- I imagine the larger size would have taken me all day to do!

I started with wrapping individual bundles and attaching them one by one, but it worked better when I placed the stalks directly on the base and then wrapped one to two times around them.

Ta-dah!

I haven’t decided if I’ll leave it to dry (it’s sure to fall apart a bit during the drying process) or to spray a sealer on it to preserve it for longer- it would keep the color and last much longer, but would hide the scent and mean I can’t use the buds for anything afterwards. Choices, choices.

For now, it’s hanging on the door :blush:

Blessed be! :purple_heart:
