hang drying

How to hang-dry

1. Harvest your botanicals, leaving the longest stems possible.
2. If drying flowers, strip all leaves from the stems. 
3. Gather botanicals into bunches.
4. Fasten each bunch together at the end with thread or a rubber band.
5. Hang the bunches in rows, far enough apart so that they won't tangle or crush each other.
6. Make sure the hanging area doesn't have very much light or dust.

*this drying process may take several days to a week*
