I have a and treat my cats to catnip often, spoiled little fur balls!
What You’ll Need:
Fresh Wild Grown Catnip
Paper, cut to desired size
Book or Flower Press
The process is very simple, as long as you keep your cats our of the room! Cut your paper to the desired size, I used 8.1 x 11 sheets cut in half because they fit perfectly in my book that I was using as a press. Lay out the sheets of paper and arrange the catnip on the pages. Make sure that the leaves do not overlap (it could cause mold or damage to your pressed plant after its dried).
Place another sheet on top of each sheet with catnip. Carefully transfer to your book or flower press. If you use a book make sure to choose a book that has slick pages that won’t get ruined. The book I chose happened to be a journal, so there was no worry about accidentally ruining the pages.
Press the catnip pages in your book or flower press for 2-3 weeks or until they are dry. Remove once dry. Store the pages with the rest of your magical items or use them right away for spells and workings. You may give the catnip to your cats, frame it, or use it as a dried herb for teas, incense, or other spells.
