Posted - Sep 22 2009 : 3:03:45 PM I have a full 16 oz bag and a half bag (about 8 oz) of dried white jasmine buds. I used it for the reception throw in place of rice or birdseed for my son's wedding. That does not sound like a lot but evidently jasmine is very light because I way over ordered. I made 200 1/4 cup sachets with a little over half a bag. I did mix dried lavender with it but this is one case where a little goes a long way. Anyway since white jasmine does not hold its fragrance after drying it does not benefit sachets for storage but does make a beautiful wedding throw. With rice being bad for the birds and I was afraid someone would get their eye knocked out with birdseed, white jasmine buds made a great replacement. It is delicate, has a good throw appearance and will compost into the ground. If someone would like the remaining buds I will gladly send them for the price of postage.
