It\u2019s easy to use herbs when you\u2019re home, but traveling with them requires some extra thought. If you are happy with loose herbs, there are generally no issues. Put them in a bag and go. However, if you like to use tinctures then further consideration must be taken. Tinctures are normally stored in\u00a01 oz. amber \u00a0glass bottles. For travel, some people choose to store their tinctures in plastic bottles. I am not a fan of plastic<\/a>, so that\u2019s not an option for our family. At first, I made a simple pouch out of bubble wrap, not very elegant but it did the trick. Then, I came across a simple homemade carrying case and decided to make one for Mike since he was traveling quite a bit. It was perfect ~ simple and easy to travel with tinctures. I finally made one for myself too.<\/p>\n

All you need is a placemat, thread and ribbon. I sewed it by hand but if you have a sewing machine, it can be made within minutes. I am a big fan of reusing and found 5 placemats at a 2nd<\/sup> hand store for only $1.00.<\/p>\n
