I'm just off to the mail to ship out the lavender wands to two wonderful women who celebrated my 10,000 views with me. I'm still waiting for a shipping address from Mama Pea. Mama Pea if you want your lavender wands email me your shipping address.
My lavender finished early this year so the wands aren't as fragrant as I'd like but they still smell wonderful. I put them in my drawers and closets. To refresh the scent just give the end a little squeeze.
I was going to show how to make them but I can't take pictures and weave them at the same time. I need both my hands to make them. So instead I'll direct you to a website that has instructions on how to make them. That's how I figured out how to make them. You do need freshly picked long stem lavender and some ribbon to make them. Here's a great tutorial on how to make these yourself:

If you don't have very fragrant lavender you can tuck a small pad saturated with lavender EO inside the basket of the wand while you weave them.
I better run before the post office is closed. Enjoy your lavender wands ladies.
