Cut off the flower stems to the leaf growth, then in the spring, give it another light clip over - don't cut into old wood, though, as Lavender doesn't appreciate this.

My Mother used to dry off the old flower heads and then light them to smoulder and scent the house out, they smoulder just like a cigarette
