Timoo Dried Lavender Bundles 100 Natural Dried Lavender Flowers for Home Decoration, Photo Props, Home Fragrance, 2 Bundles Pack

If you want fully understand what you’re buying and how to make the most of it, keep reading.……………………………………………First, these stems are awesome! The packaging is lovely, the price is great, and the stems are perfect. I use these for so many things. In addition to the ideas I’ve listed below to help other customers, I use these lavender stems with other herbs and flowers I dry myself in the sage bundles I make for smudging/smoke cleansing (photo attached). They also work well when burned as incense, for bath and body, in resin crafts, and more. I would absolutely recommend these to people, and I will order again when I run out, but you get a lot of bang for your buck with these bundles, so they will last me quite a while.………………………………………I see some complaints in other reviews by folks who clearly don’t understand much about having dried floral stems shipped, and what to expect, especially with lavender. I’ll break it down:………………………………………1. “So many buds broke off.” Lavender buds are very small and delicate. Even more so when dried. They will fall off the stems if you breathe on them wrong (kidding, but not much). These stems are subjected to a lot of movement during shipping. Buds are going to fall off. With so many stems in this package, a LOT of buds are going to fall off. This should be expected. There is no way to prevent it unless you want some chemical sealer on your stems.|||………||| WHAT TO DO: Accept that you will have a lot of loose buds, and plan to use them in creative ways. Make soap or candles! Put them in sachets for inside pillows, drawers, shoes, and linen closets. Sprinkle them in your bath or add to potpourri. Infuse your favorite skin oils with them (I add them to chamomile oil). Simmer them in water for 5 minutes, let cool, pour into a small spray bottle. Either keep refrigerated for a refreshing facial mist on hot days, or add a bit of skin safe essential oil to make a custom scented spray for body, hair, or home.……………………………………… 2. “They lost their scent.” Yeah, they’re dead. They haven’t been sprayed or soaked in artificial scents. They’re not going to smell for very long once exposed to air. (Potpourri has scent added to it, and you have to add more scent regularly to keep it smelling strong.)|||………||| WHAT TO DO: When you open the box, you’re going to get hit with the strong, heavenly scent of real lavender. (At least I did). Enjoy this moment, then get busy. You can transfer the entire contents of the box to an airtight container, but I didn’t find this step necessary. I just re-taped the shipping box. Take only the amount of stems and loose buds you need to use at that time, then seal the rest and store them in a dark, dry, cool place away from pets or children. LAVENDER IS TOXIC TO CATS. Use what you need when you need it. Just like potpourri, you will need to add a little lavender fragrance oil now and then if the scent is what you bought these for.………………………………………3. “The buds aren’t as purple as I wanted.” While they shouldn’t be brown with no/almost no purple at all, do not expect dried buds to be the vibrant purple of fresh buds or full lavender blooms. Flowers naturally change colors and often become darker when dried. (Buy a fresh bright red rose. Hang it upside down to dry for a few weeks. It will become a very dark, brownish red color.) This is just the way it is.|||…………|||WHAT TO DO: Accept it and move on.

A bit dry but smelled gr8

Packaged well, arrived quickly, and the smell is amazing!!!!! Good price and I am actually thinking of ordering a couple more.... definitely would recommend ❤❤❤❤❤

Fragrance is lovely, you need to pull them apart little but very very brittle. They give you a small mesh bag for the buds that fall off.. mine had quite alot , i could have filled up 3 easy .before I fluffed them.They are dried. Think they'll be fine for the bathroom,they will soften up with moisture.

Fragrant and full!

I have several lavender bushes in my front and back yard. I made my own dry lavender bunch for several years. I highly suspect these are the leftover from the distill process. There is no lavender scent at all. The bunches look dull and like washed by water.

A lot of the flours had fallen in the shipping. They don’t smell to much

If you love lavender like me, this is a must. I got these two dried lavender bundles on Amazon. They come tied with a beautiful little twine string. Whatever lavender comes loose in the box, they include a sachet bag to collect it in. I have one on my desk at work and one at home. It’s simply wonderful!
