Bringing in your garden- dried lavender flower bouquet adds a fragrant, rustic touch to your space!

Lavender bouquets bring in the beauty and scent of the garden. You can enjoy the scent of a fragrant garden for a long time, by creating dried lavender arrangements. It is a very easy-to-grow herb, and it is also very easy to handle the cut flowers.

Lavender can be harvested fresh, dried and then used to make pretty lavender bouquets, wreaths or special potpourri mixes! Other garden bloomers such as coneflowers, bee balm, and roses can be incorporated into lavender bouquets. These strong vertical lines are a stark contrast to the more rounded forms of other summer blooms.

In addition, you can also wrap stems in rubber bands and let them dry upside-down in a warm, dark place. After the stems have dried, you can arrange dried lavender bunches with other dried flowers or make a large display of dried lavender by combining several bunches. The color of dried lavender is affected by sunlight, so it is best to keep them out of direct sun.

There are many amazing psychological and physiological benefits that one can avail from the lavender flowers. They are a symbol of purity, love, and romance. A dried lavender bouquet like this can bring back great memories or awaken beautiful feelings. 

A dried lavender flower bouquet can be used as a rustic decoration to beautify your space and to infuse your home with a soothing scent. Profound and yet, the relaxing scent of lavender can help you to rest and relax. Ofcourse, dried lavender flowers make for an amazing tea that will help you to get deep rejuvenating rest.
