I recall @chyna, @lucillelucillelucille and @jude had some good ideas about 3 months back. PM them?

You can make lavender sachets for your drawers.

You can make lavender pillows or eye masks to help induce sleep.

You can make lavender ice cream or lavender biscuits or lavender jam.

You can make soap of it.
You can leave some where it is and occasionally rub your fingers on a flower and smell them.
In my head I made of this question: Things To Do With Lavender When You’re Dead.

A little bit can add a great aroma/flavor layer to cooking ^^ @Kardamom covered that, but be really careful with the amount. A little is wonderful, slightly more, and it tastes like soap.

I was told, long ago, that drying it and putting it in a (breathable) satchet under your pillow makes for a dreamless, healthful sleep. I have to try that.
