Lighting homemade incense is a great way to fill up a room with the intoxicating aroma of your favorite herbs and flowers. Create a bunch using herbs like sage and rosemary, and add other plants like fresh lavender and rose petals, then tie together using natural cotton string. Hang to dry or let your bundle sit outside for a few days to a week, until it’s fully dried. Then it’s all ready to use!

*Make sure the plants you use are safe to burn, as some can produce harmful fumes.
