Essential Oils Around the House

There are a variety of ways in which one can utilize essential oils around the house.

Air Freshners :

Fill a 120ml mist spray bottle with distilled water and add 120 drops of essential oils or blend of oils. Tighten cap, shake well, and spary the mist into the air. The scent improves and becomes stonger as the mist ages inside the bottle. Hint: To see whether or not 120 drops would be too much - try first 60 drops and gradually increase by 20 drops until you reach 120 drops total. Some people are more sensitive than others. Please keep this in mind when mixing!

Mist Sprays (one of my favorites):

This uses less essential oil, but can quickly freshen up any room or help on a long drive. Add up to 18 drops of essential oil to 125 ml of water. Shake the bottle well before use!

Laundry/Clothes Cupboard:

Put 2-3 drops of essential oil or blend of oils on a cotten ball and place these between linnen and clothes.
