Awesome Video! Also can blend up the dry leaves and add any carrier oil inside an airtight glass jar. Sit for 7-10 days, (giving glass jar a spin every day). After this lightly heat and add beeswax. Look online how much beeswax you need to oil etc. Let cool and solidify in amber coloured glass and bam easy simple chest rub :) If beeswax is a no go for you, you can use coconut oil as the carrier and leave to sit in the hot water cupboard for the 7-10 days (so it stays melted and marinates the leaves). Then (strain out leaves if you want) and let it cool in amber coloured glass. Coconut oil solidifies naturally up so there is no need for beeswax.
Nice! I went to Trader Joe’s on 14st yesterday and none of them had the rubber bands so I had to use a hair tie, I have also never tried these smaller leave ones, but I will next time.
I read somewhere that if you don't smell anything from the start, to cut a piece off the ends and to cut it in a tiny bit. Is this true? I did this and mine sadly enough still don't release any smell =(
I have not heard that. I have heard that rolling it with a rolling pin before hanging it will release a stronger scent, but I haven't tried that either but I could see how that would help.
I got some from trader joes recently and I am unable to smell anything from them. It's been a week and they are already dried. Should I have used a rolling pin to smash the leaves before?
