Recipe Instructions: Herbal Oil Infusions :
  1. Break apart lavender buds and loosely fill clean,dry jar.
  2. The base oil should be a lightly scented one like almond. Pour oil over the chopped herbs, completely covering the flowers. When using dried flowers allow room for expansion as the flowers take up the oil by leaving a few inches of liquid at the top. Check for moisture and dry any condensation that forms at the top of jar when using fresh plants.
  3. Let infuse for about 3 weeks in a cool place out of direct sunlight.
  4. Strain well, removing all bits of plant material and rebottle for use.
