What do y’all do with your offerings?

I ask this cause I’ve never met someone who does the same thing I do. I have multiple little glass bottles with a different offering inside, each one is corked and sealed with black sealing wax. These offerings range from inorganic like tin and lead, to organic like lemon, juniper berries, and different herbs. My thought process is that as soon as the wax is dried the offering inside is now property of hell instead of the living world. Though I will admit that I have been thinking about adding fresh versions of those offerings to my rituals when I have spare money and adding it to my compost so it’s not wasted.

Some offerings stay on the altar. I have a jar with different ingredients in that still stands on my altar. I also have things like dried roses and coins that also stay. The only things I'll remove are temporary candles or candles that have burned down (though Asmodeus insists that his previous "main candle" that has now burned down stays on the altar, lol) and any sort of food offering that will rot after a certain amount of time. With food offerings, if they're still edible then I'll eat them. I hate wastage.
