Hi Shirley,

Thank you for your kindness. Yes I have been answering quite a few inquiries about the beeswax. I sent out a request for the supplier that Amanda uses, last week and will let you know what I hear back as soon as I get it.

For the Lavender honey, thank you for pointing out the discrepancy, I think that this could be considered a situational choice. If it is in the heat of the summer and putting the honey in the window would mean that it’s exposed to strong and hot sun, then it’s best put in the cupboard where the temperature would be a bit more gentle and stable, however if it’s the winter and the sun is just warm and your home is at a continuous gentle warmth then in the window could be good.

One thing I’ve learned through making herbal products is sometimes there are different recommendations from different people and I think ultimately they have chosen what has worked the best for them after practice and noticing timing of year, how their house temperature of moisture levels are etc.

I hope this helps a little.
All the best,
Benna
