I’m having a lot of fun sharing with you guys some of my favorite homemade products and DIYs using essential oils and other natural ingredients. I’m also purposefully showing y’all the EASIEST ones because I want you to see that it doesn’t have to take days upon days and hours upon hours to make simple swaps in your home!

What do I mean by simple swaps? I mean changing out little things like your store bought, $16-$40 body scrub for one that costs MAYBE $1-$3. Changing out your store bought dishwasher tabs for homemade ones that work JUST as well! Switching out your $11-$20 bottle of body wash for one that costs just CENTS on the dollar. BONUS, you’re not only saving money, you’re using more natural, safe, effective, and less harsh ingredients on yourself and your family!

Today’s DIY is much like the others… simple, affordable, quick to make, and makes an AWESOME gift idea. We love our house to smell nice. We love our rooms to smell nice. But, we don’t need to be using all those artificial plugins with all those awful synthetic fragrances to do the trick… We don’t need expensive, chemical-laden room sprays to artificially cover up odors. Yucky!

This is an awesome and easy DIY for a homemade air freshener spray that you can use safely in any room as much or as little as you want. PLUS, I’ve included 10, yes TEN, different scent combinations to get you inspired.

I hope you like! 🙂
