I’m trimming my young lavender and looking for uses for these lovely leaves. I have no flowers, just leaves. What are your favorite things to do with them? I’m considering making a dried mint/lavender tea as gifts for Christmas. But that’s the extent of my creativity and I’m sure I’m missing something clever I could  be doing instead.

Hard to beat tea, but with all the lovely sewing you've been doing I expect sachets for linens storage would be nice. You might also consider including a little scent-sachet inside some of the dolls you make!

It's a really nice addition to chicken's nest box if you have chickens and lots of leaves.  They seems to really enjoy it.
