Rose Air Freshener

ROSE SCENTED AIR FRESHENER:
I love roses, I have them growing among my veggies in my vegetable garden - my excuse here being that rose petals are edible, and the rose hips have all kinds of healing properties.  The smell of roses in a home just gives it such a country garden scent.

Ingredients:
15ml Vodka
15 drops Rose Blend essential oil
10 drops Rose Geranium essential oil
500ml Cooled boiled water
Method:
- Put the oils & vodka in a 500ml spray bottle and shake well to dissolve the oils.  
- Add the water and spray.
Tips:
Change the oils for different fragrances, have fun trying them out.

Air freshener


LAVENDER AIR FRESHENER:
A lovely air freshener which I use in all my rooms (but mainly the loo!).  Both Lemongrass and lavender are fab insect repellents.  And both have the added advantage of being a natural anti-septic and anti-viral.  Lemongrass also acts as a bactericide.  So there you have it - a fab smelling anti-septic air freshener.  Play with different essential oils for a variety of fragrances.



Ingredients:
5ml Vodka
15 drops Lavender essential oil
10 drops Lemongrass essential oil
500ml water
Method:
- Put the oils & vodka in a 500ml spray bottle and shake well.  
- Add the water and spray.

Tips:
- Try out other essential oils.  Another favorite of mine is Neroli or Rose Air Freshener
