Tell me: what do you do with your lavender harvest? Still on my list is a lavender syrup for lattes and a lavender honey for winter biscuits. What else am I missing?
Handmade lavender soap with lavender essential oil and dried buds
@@sharylfuller9277 Do you know how to make lavender soap that's not too overly complicated?
How about a lavender infusion oil for dry winter skin.
Lavender sugar (also a beautiful gift) and lavender shortbread!
I make bouquets and give to my friends. I make sachets with the buds and wreaths too.
This blows my mind to see all this lavender, I can't even get the tiniest plant start to stay alive! I only dream of having this much lavender around... Beautiful though!!
My Mum always said you need two plants not just one. I've bought lavender for the first time this year and I bought four plants. I've never been very successful with growing anything but I do hope my beautiful lavender survives 💜
Next up.....a video on how to grow that much lavender. 😁
Show off!!! Never in my days of 68 years have I seen a common Gardners haul of such beautiful Lavender!!! Kudos to you and your green thumb!
I don't have a lavender harvest, but what I do have as gads and GADS of mint! Thank you to whomever my garden plot belonged to before it was mine because their mint is now everywhere!
Just saw this comment - we have lots of mint too and we dry it in big bunches in our kitchen and use it for delicious mint tea in the middle of winter!
I make lavender lemonade and especially lavender gelato the old fashioned way without any machines.
Both of those sound delightful!
Nice! Any chance of sharing one of those recipes?
Where to start….??? In no particular order….the lavender harvest is so amazing. I took comfort in hearing, I believe, that you’ve tended the patch for a few years. That gives me hope. The wreath is so beautiful! Full and the color is brilliant against your door. You could purchase one, possibly that pretty, but it would be super expensive and not as lovingly made. Ok. This sounds creepy, but your hands and your hand movements are so calming and almost dance like. Truly. The music you choose for your videos are just spot on. The wall color in your living room-I’m guessing living room- is so lively and calming and peaceful and bidding. I mean, right down to your mug, this was such a treat and it was so inspiring. Thank you and artfully done. Would love to see a home video. Hint, hint. Blessings, Shaye. You rock. XO
I feel like I can smell the Lavender while you are working with it. I cannot get mine to do anything special… but I’ll NEVER give up. 😊
That beautiful lavender up against your green walls is absolutely stunning!!
So I'm here in my kitchen, watching this, while standing under lavender I harvested from my back yard!
Still trying to get my hands on the one kind of lavender that might grow here in central FL!
I have a small hedge of lavender in my garden,just 5 plants. There are hundreds of bees enjoying it. This year I seem to have acquired a colony of bumble bees. They sleep in my pumpkin patch and work the lavendar,the rampant borage, the ginormous cardoons,the bronze fennel,and joe pye weed. I'll harvest half this year.
I wish I could grow lavender here! I swear I can smell your heavenly bounty! I do have a bunch I bought rolled in a newspaper cone on my bed tray. I have made lavender shortbread cookies for my daughter's wedding ahower.
I make herbs de province, love it on just about everything. I usually have bunch dried in a vase, just because. Love your wreath!
Lavender is an amazing herb, one where a little goes a long way when cooking. I've got several varieties in my yard. They're all blooming right now and it smells amazing. It's glorious. 😊
I buy bunches of lavender from local farmer and make little wands with ribbon, instructions on the internet, great for dresser draws. I have also made wreaths, but as the flower buds dry and drop onto the floor, I had a flashbulb moment and bought some lavender colored netting and wrapped it (artfully) around the wreath to catch them it worked and looked beautiful with a little purple ribbon woven through ! Annmarie in Oregon
You might want to dry your Lavender away from sunlight.
What variety is that... beautiful.
I so loved this video. I liked the music. I loved your basket that you put the Lavender in. I saw that small smile of satisfaction and had to smile with you. I loved your fireplace mantle and your art around it. I thought it would be wonderful to go back to those days like in Larkspur to Candleford, a show I watched. They celebrated with gathering and food. I loved that. They weren't rich but they had what they needed when they helped each other out and very much moved with the harvest. We've given important things up for the sake of progress. I hope Angela is ok. Haven't from her in a week. Hope she's well. Well tell your friend Angela I said Shalom and Shalom Aleichem to you and your family too.
I thoroughly enjoyed this video of you using your lavender harvest in different ways. Your wreath turned out gorgeous and the basket on the mantle made me wish I had a mantle also the cookies looked delicious. Thanks for sharing.
I just harvested lavender from 4 of my plants today and you inspired me to change my wreath on my front door! 💜 It isn't summer for me until I make lavender simple syrup to go in iced tea-lemonade.
so happy to see you to do this show my mother used to do that in n.y. bring good memories.
What a bounty of lavender! How beautiful! I love lavender!
Ooo! I will definitely be making these cookies. I recently made my self a small lavender pillow. I have problems sleeping and find it truly helps me relax. I made it with a drawstring closure so I can wash it or change out this years harvest next year. Thanks for sharing. Stay well 🙏🏻💜
I just love your channel. It is so educational, exciting, enjoyable, and relaxing. You and your family are a God send. Thank you!
One of the best things about gardening is fresh lavender! My favorite harvest of the season!!
Beautiful!!! Our garden transformation is ready but the plants will come in fall. We have loads of lavender planned ! Love from the Netherlands , Lenny
I have a beautiful lavender bush in my garden. Up until now I have simply enjoyed it as it blooms. I am not sure why I have never harvested it. You have inspired me to make sure I enjoy my lavender more fully.
Lavender epsom bath salts??
OH, I HAVE BEEN WAITING for your lavender video!!!!!! Love love love 💕
I want to plant lavender next year
Again thanks for this video I also love lavender I think your videos are very peace As you know and of course the music it’s so relaxing thanks Elliot.
Thank you for being authentic!
We’re east of you on the Columbia but getting the smoke from the fires near you. I hope it is not too close and that you and yours are safe. We’re building this year so will plant flowers, fruit, nuts, and veg next summer. For sure lots of lavender will be in the mix. I got in a tiny bed of comfrey, sea kale, and asparagus. I planted a few shade trees and will put in two more this fall before the snow flies. Thanks for another lovely and peaceful video. Have a blessed, joyful day.
We are safe. Thank you!
We make lovely lavender cupcakes with the lavender we harvest here in France. They are so tasty and we can have them all year round as we dry the lavender and keep it in Kilner jars to cheer us up on colder, winter days!
Just recently Had a delicious lavender infused creme brûlée …. You’re right, it is magical!! 💕
Gorgeous simplicity! Love it!🥰❤️
What I love about you and your Chanel, you teach a crafty girl like me HOW to decorate my home. My taste all over. (I even bought 3 rolls of your wallpaper that sit waiting to go up. Lol. Anyways. Thanks for sharing!
that wallpaper is amaaaaze ! where did you find it?
@@samanthadionm.3726 I wish I could remember. Wallpaper company.com or something simple like that. There was a whole video about it a while back and there was a link in the description. I’ve had it for over a year. I really need to hang it. *yikes. Wasn’t inexpensive
@@melissaharris1358 thank you!
@@melissaharris1358 (and lol)
I'm slowly working through Seasons at the Farm and starting to grow and harvest to make the recipes in that book. This year, we were able to make our own garlic scape pesto and I'm hoping next year we'll be able to make the bacon-wrapped asparagus with the asparagus we planted this year. I'm just starting our lavender so no harvest this year but, in 3-5 years, I will totally make that shortbread! Yum! Thank you, Shaye, for the inspiration and beauty. Oh! And next year I'm definitely making the strawberry-rhubarb jam!💜💜💜
Beautiful! Absolutely beautiful 🤭😘 and the lavender cookies. What an inspiration you are. I love this channel. It has to be in my top 5 maybe even top 3. 😊
Totally do the same thing with my lavender! Hung it and sage on the doors of every bedroom! We have a spectacular lavender festival in Nampa ID most every year, that you should check out someday! Would be great to meet you!
I can't wait to see more of your garden!
I want to make lavender simple syrup for my coffee with cream.
Beautiful wreath!! You are full of such great ideas!!
Lavender tea
Lavender shortbread
Lavender macarons
Lavender oil to go into shampoo or make perfume etc
Dried Lavender for food and or soaps and for potpourri... soo much to do with Lavender is so versatile I love it.
As for what I do with my lavender, I've got various herbs growing all over my yard. I harvest all of that stuff and make a garden herb blend that I use throughout the year. Like your herb salt it's heavy on the rosemary & sage, but lighter on the salt.
Wow love the Lavender looks great inside the house
What lavender is that one you harvest, it looks like a tall variety.
I would like to try and get this one.
Thanks
It looks like English Lavender.
Hi shay another beautiful and talented video I love lavender but I haven’t grown it yet..🌿 🌾 those were big bundles of lavender you made, loved the wreath and your basket full of it too.. it looked so nice up on your fireplace mantle....and the cookies looked yummy.. you have a lovely and cozy home love it.. bless ❤️ you and your family.. thanks for this video..
After years (and 3 seed packets) of trying to get lavender to take from seed, I bought 1 for my container garden, it died in the 3 digit heat earlier this summer. Yesterday I bought another one and then learned we're getting ready for More triple digit days. I think I'll put a shade cloth up this time (a sheet or blanket) to keep all my plants safe!
I love to bake with lavender, I mix it in most of my cups of tea (I have a loose leaf supply), I get it in lattes around town.
Your lavender is very beautiful I love the fragrance I will definitely remember your cookie recipe with lavender
This video was as relaxing and Pleasant as Lavender is. Fun music
This is amazing! I can't wait to have this much lavender one day!
Lovely video Shaye thanks for the inspiration! am def going to have a go at making a wreath yours looks beautiful 💜
The music was perfection. I am just trying my hand at lavender this year. Hard to do in zone 4b. Lovely video. Thank you.
@@thistlecreek461 I planted 3 plants last year. 2 survived.
What a wonderful harvest of lavender! Mine is not as bountiful but I have made lavender wands. They are nice to put in your drawers or hang in your closets. I enjoy a lavender berry spritzer also.
Combine 1 ounce of lavender syrup with 3 ounces of cranberry juice and 4 ounces of soda water. Serve over ice. Garnish with a lemon twist. Enjoy!
So inspired by this! Perfect ideal to decorate my barn loft! Beautiful video!
Thank you for sharing! I love both the basket and wreath. I'm also happy to see you didn't have to wear your bee suit to harvest it 😉
Love Lavender!!💜
Your lavender is amazing 🦋 I was just harvesting my today in nj
This was so relaxing!
Love your style!!! 😻😻😻😻🌸🌸🌸🌸🌳🌳🌳🌳 I see art in all you do!
One of my fav videos!
Now I need to grow more lavender for next year!!
Beautiful wreath ❤️
Lavender sachets as gifts!
I’ve had my lavender bushes for three years now and was only able to get about a quarter size bunch from them this year. I cherish it so much that I would have used all the loose lavender you had on your table to make sachets for my knitting as it keeps moths away. I’m trying so very hard for a large crop but each year it’s small. You’re so blessed.
simply beautiful 💐
Garden Goals!!!
Beautiful
I like to say that lavender is the only thing that keeps me sane 🤣
Thank you for the inspiration
Love your philosophy
I love lavender..I just can't seem to get it to grow like yours does...Do you mind sharing the variety...Loved the video, everything you did today was absolutely lovely....could I have a bite of that shortbread, YUM!
Fun to see what to do with the lavender. Did you save a lot more of the flowers to put into baked goods. Would love to see what all one can do with a harvest.
I like the green produce bin Shaye ! ;)
I bet u can easily sell bunches of this gorgeous lavender 😍
I LOVE your mantle and the pictures just to the left of it! Swoon!! And that lavender…. What variety do you recommend? Mine is not growing well at all. It isn’t much bigger than when I planted it in May. 🤔
Beautiful 💐
With how much lavender and honey tea I drink in the winter I would be drying half or more 🙈 it's my favorite
I’ll bet hairspray can keep the lavender intact on the wreath (prevent shedding).
Beautiful 🌿💜
Lovely harvest. I have poor luck with it here in Michigan.It never over winters and is pretty wimpy in my garden. Too darn cold, I guess.
I just learned to make my own herbs de Provence (sp?) a few weeks ago! I’d love to see the culinary uses for your lavender and how to prepare once dry.
Do you ever press flowers?
Do you make lavender jelly, vinegar, oil, used for eating and as condiments?
Shaye, what variety of lavender do you grow so well? I'm trying to decide which to plant en masse here in my new home. Appreciate your help, if you know. Thanks!
Beautiful! 💚💜💚💜💚💜💚💜💚💜💚💜
When does lavender produce the blossoms after sowing from seed? I planting some this year after cold stratification in March I believe. But they are still small and have no buds ♥️
I’m a new subscriber. Jess from Roots and Refuge mentioned you. I live in Western Wa and am very interested in learning about local homestead and family farm channels. I’m curious about the lavender variety you have and roughly the size of space this amount of harvest came from. Lavender is on the list for next year so I’m planning now making your video not only lovely but timely. I’m looking forward to watching through your videos.
We had no luck with lavender this year, and it was almost impossible to find any for my sister's wedding this May we ended up paying almost $100 at a florist for a small bunch of it about the size of the first three bunches that you put into your basket
What varieties of lavender do you grow? I want to try growing some lavender of my own, but I don’t know which varieties will handle the Minnesota winter. You live in a fairly similar climate. Do you have any tips?
This is stunning 💜 I love using lavender in smudge bundles for energy clearing ✨🌿
Me too!!!
@@wanderingsoul2931 It smells so good! I'm going to try some with Eucalyptus and Rosemary this year too ☺️
What type is that lavender? I’ve got to double or triple my plants for next year so I can make some wreaths. Just beautiful!!
This is so lovely, Shaye! Thank you! May I ask where you got your classic white blouse? Thank you!
J. Crew!
what kind of lavender is this? I have never seen lavender grow this well before. It is gorgerous
What varieties of lavender do you grow and are they all culinary varities?
My Mum would faithfully go with Her GF every Year to the Marsh where the Lavender grew Wild. They also had a secret spot for Bayberries. Mum loved having Her Front Door decorated, even with Seven kids! I had Back Surgery this Spring so I didn't put in all that I wanted this Year. I did start Dahlias though and my Lemon Balm came back after it's first Winter in the ground 🙌🐦.
Your Lavender everything's look wonderful 💞
JO JO IN VT 💕😄
Absolutely beautiful. What kind of lavender is this?
That is THE perfect white button up shirt.
J. Crew!
Do you plant a specific "culinary" lavender for use in the kitchen or just regular English or French lavender?
Magical
Which variety of lavender is that? It's beautiful.
