Tip from Lavender: How to Grow & Use the Fragrant Herb:
When using dried flowers and herbs the number and assortment of potential containers increases dramatically. Without a water requirement, almost any object can be used to show off the flowers. Old baby shoes reflect the delicate of the small lavender buds. The stems are cut short to stuff into high topped shoes.
You can use a fabric or crocheted booties in the same way by first stiffening it with fabric stiffener.........
