Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Simmering Citrus and Rosemary: Combine slices of oranges or lemons with a few sprigs of fresh rosemary in a pot of water. Simmer gently on the stovetop for about 30 minutes to infuse your home with a citrusy and herbal aroma.

  2. Floral Room Spray: In a small spray bottle, mix water with a few drops of lavender or chamomile essential oil. Shake well before each use and spritz lightly around your home to enjoy a calming fragrance.

  3. Natural Reed Diffuser: In a glass jar, mix a carrier oil like sweet almond or jojoba with your choice of essential oils. Add wooden reeds to the jar, allowing them to soak up the scented oil and release fragrance gradually into the room.

  4. Scented Sachets: Fill small fabric pouches with dried herbs such as lavender, rosemary, or mint. Place the sachets in drawers or closets to keep clothes smelling fresh and deter pests.

  5. Soy Wax Candles: Melt soy wax and blend in your favorite essential oils such as vanilla, cinnamon, or eucalyptus. Pour the mixture into candle containers and allow to set. Light the candle to fill your room with a cozy, natural scent.
