As we both get "gardeners hands" we made a batch of calendula hand cream to use after a day with the rake or spade.
It takes about 30 minutes to make and is very easy. You just need a big handful of calendula petals, 300ml of olive oil and 200g of beeswax. First off melt the beeswax into the olive oil using a double boiler, add the calendula petals and simmer for ten minutes. Pour through a strainer to remove the petals into a jar and wait for it to set. It is well worth the effort to make.
