To document the completion of the BB, I have provided the following:

For my ginger root salve, I used a combination of beeswax and ginger oil from the previous BB. I will include a picture of that ginger and it being made into an oil as well. Lots of pictures to follow

Ok I have added the picture of my ginger in the oil sorry about that, hope this fixes it

GINGER ROOT SALVE!

I travelled far and wide to find the ginger for my salve *
And the rapeseed it has granted it`s magic even from further and wider aways.**
The wax I am gifted from the familiars of our coven, the beautiful busy bees spear-headed by their queens the fair Euphemia and the belligerent Maude! ¤
A recipe I was granted by my teacher P.Ahnert from her alchemical grimoire.¤¤
Too powerful was her salve, and my force is not as strong, so this is a mere shadow of hers. £
Two score seven of fiery oil!
Halfscore two of wax!
Heated on the fires of hell! ££
Fear its power! @

*(45 minutes to the store. at least 10 minutes in the store and 45 minutes back again. A proper voyage!)
** (The ecological rapeseed oil is from a store about a minutes walk away from where I got the ginger. Which adds at least two minutes of journeying...)
¤(We had three hives last year [now four!], and wax here was scrapings from two of them)
¤¤(Beehive Alchemy. A great addition to your bookshelf if you want to do things with wax!)
£(I halved it due to not having enough oil for a full batch)
££(Our wood fired oven)
@(I haven`t really tried it yet, but ginger is great for a lot of things, so I have faith in this`n)

I made some salves for the first time today. This one is ginger. I used ginger oil and beeswax at a 5:1 ratio. The ginger was bought from a shop as we can't grow it in the UK.

I didn't include a required photo so I'm reapplying for this BB.

I infused the ginger oil over a month, shaking it every couple of days and keeping it in a cool, dark cupboard. I used ginger oil and beeswax at a 5:1 ratio. The ginger was bought from a shop as we can't grow it in the UK.
