This Is One Of The Most Useful Things You Can Make In Under One Minute






While I love my diffuser and use it frequently at home, diffusing isn’t the only way to use essential oils! In fact, there are all sorts of reasons you may prefer an alternative to diffusing essential oils.

Some people prefer subtler scents, and it can be hard to achieve that with certain diffusers. And some people don’t own a diffuser to begin with, and that’s okay too! :-)

In today’s post, I’ll be sharing one of my favorite ways to use essential oils without the use of a diffuser. This air freshener spray is easy to make, has many useful applications (which we’ll get to shortly), and makes a great gift too!


What’s In This Spray?
This simple and customizable air freshener spray is made with just 3 simple elements. You can make my favorite version of this spray by following the recipe provided below, or choose your own unique ingredients to make a spray that’s all your own!
Distilled Water – You can use tap water in a pinch, but distilled water is the way to go if you want to maximize the shelf life! Essential Oils – Where freshness is concerned, it’s hard to beat the combined scents of lemon oil and lavender oil! It’s uplifting, comforting, and wonderfully clean. Emulsifier – Adding an emulsifier like witch hazel, rubbing alcohol, or vodka helps the water and oil mix together more effectively. (Even with an emulsifier, the spray is still likely to separate over time. But it’s nothing a good shake won’t fix!)

How To Make Your Own Air Freshener Spray
Ingredients & Supplies:
Small glass spray bottle 6 Tbsp distilled water 2 Tbsp witch hazel, rubbing alcohol, or vodka 10 drops lemon essential oil 10 drops lavender essential oil


Directions:

Add the distilled water, emulsifier (either witch hazel, rubbing alcohol, or vodka), and essential oils to your glass spray bottle.

Replace the top, shake well to combine, and it’s ready to go!

Clothes that have been in your drawer or closet for a while can smell a bit stale. Freshen them up with just a few spritzes!
