The Handmade Apothecary

Did you know that daisies infused in oil can be used on bruises, that roses are used for heartache and grieving, or that elderflower cordial can help bring down a temperature? Peppered with vinegars, balms, oils, tinctures, creams, lotions and syrups to create your own little herbal health kit, the book also encourages people to reconnect with their local environment in addition to growing herbs in their gardens or windowsills. An all-encompassing guide for the beginner.
