Product Care

I want everything that you purchase from me to last for eternity! Here are a few tips to help extend the life of your products.

-HERBARIUMS-

  • These pieces are very fragile, please handle with care and keep out of the reach of children!
  • The soldered parts of the herbariums do contain lead (60/40 tin/lead solder) so please be cautious when handling, and avoid contact with your mouth.
  • Keep out of direct sunlight to preserve the color for as long as possible. Since these are made up of organic materials, they will fade over time, but they age beautifully!
  • To clean, use a dry microfiber cloth, or use a slightly damp rag and wipe clean *DO NOT SUBMERGE IN WATER*
  • Do not hang on doors, or in areas with trapped moisture such as bathrooms
  • I dont reccommend handing on a suction cup, just because they can be unpredictable and often end in heartbreak. If you wish to hang in the window- I reccommend hanging from *above* the window on a nail, hook or curtain rod.

 

-HERBAL OFFERINGS-

  • Oils and Tinctures are bottled in clear glass bottles, so be sure to store in a cool dark location, out of direct sunlight to keep the plant medicine from deteriorating. If stored in the proper conditions, extracts will last indefinitely. Oils should be used within a couple years to avoid rancidity. 
  • If you are using an herb for the first time, start out with smaller doses, pay close attention to how the plants make you feel & gradually increase your dosage if you feel the need to. I suggest smaller, more frequent doses over larger daily doses. Each time you use your tinctures or oils- use it as a time to check in with yourself, how you're feeling, how the medicine is effecting you and take with intention.
