[@CSLT99]

Great idea and I love that it's safe to use around kids and pets!! Thanks so much! I just made some, but instead of trying to funnel the baking soda/essential oil mix directly into the spray bottle, I mixed it with water in a separate bigger container first and then just easily poured the liquid through the funnel into the spray bottle. I'm not very patient so this worked better for me :)

[@cloudnineepic]

Haha good one

[@davidolenick2280]

Put the baking soda in the water first then mix and pour both into the spray bottle

[@patheticplanet1313]

If you don't want to wait with the funnel you can mix the water and baking soda mixture in a bowl first and than pour it in the bottle with the funnel 😉

[@johnmckee2266]

Thx for the recipe....you forgot to mention that before each use that the container must be shaken to incorporate the oil and water...otherwise the oil floats to the top.

[@xzuna]

Great idea, thanks !! A small tip: if the baking soda-oil mixture is in the fennel on the bottle, poor also the water through the fennel ;-)

[@carlacruz9585]

I tried the cleaner for the bathroom (warm vinegar and dish soap) and it left my tub so nice and clean. I am so so so happy I found your video and tried it. I shared it with my sisters so they can keep their bathrooms nice and clean with non-toxic cleaners. Thank you!!! You rock!!! ;D

[@shubhamwagh9037]

Would you please explain,like warm vinegar and dish soap . (Vinegar+dish soap= for toilet cleaning)? I'm Little bit confused here, ?

[@bridgetwallace]

Just did this with tea tree oil, put a little less because tea tree oil can be overwhelming, works great! First place to try was the laundry dry room where the kitty litter box is!

[@userious3160]

I always love to have a nice smelling bedroom. I used to be terrible with room hygiene, but now days my room smells great. This tutorial can help me keep my room smelling fresh

[@DixieBlueEyes]

Hey, we are neighbors! I lived in Charlotte 5 years & worked in Matthews for about a year. Love your channel!

[@ktdidits]

I love it when you share your recipes for homemade cleaning supplies. I love how child and pet friendly they are too! Thanks for sharing :)

[@FolseFarms]

Awesome! I made the one with fabric softener and it made the whole house smell like laundry, which got nauseating. This recipe seems so much better. TFS!

[@tinyspaceliving]

I love fresh laundry smell, especially if it's not mixed with fabric conditioner. Just clean fresh scent. We hang our clothes to dry (tropical country) and that smell is just so relaxing after hours of doing the laundry.

[@bethardin2016]

tried it 🌟 love it💖 will make it again

[@mikemai5480]

the explanation is clear and easy to do, they also look all-natural, a wonderful air freshener indeed.

[@jeanstamps1]

I left a comment on your blog asking you to make sure you know what essential oils are safe to use on and around children. Facebook groups "using essential oils safely" and "safe essential oil recipes" are closed groups you can request to join, and both have so much good information on eo safety. I learned a lot from these groups.

[@johnmason8683]

Try mixing everything with the water and pour it into the bottle together,🇬🇧simple

[@EDifyer881]

smart

[@EDifyer881]

@tiger_memes lol

[@rhyfelwrDuw]

Couldn't you mix the baking soda in the water before pouring it into the bottle - would be much easier to fill the bottle?

[@yaz7652]

hahahah yep! I thought of it before starting - thankful!

[@chrissyerepeta9762]

haha! my thoughts exactly

[@trinity9140]

I heard on someone else’s video that they mix the baking soda and essential oils beforehand because it helps the oils to coagulate with the water better. I know this isn’t precisely what you meant but I hope it still helps. 😊

[@SimplyCherie]

I just finally made your all purpose cleaner an hour ago :) - my first time ever to make a cleaner. Will try your pledge and this one. Thanks!

[@DoItOnaDime]

Yay! :) :)

[@husnymubarak1170]

hi

[@ericalewis5428]

I made this yesterday using green tea and cucumber essential oil. (What I already had on hand) amazing and fresh! Thank you so much!!!

[@suegore2819]

Be careful using tea tree oil around dogs.. IT'S POISONOUS TO THEM!!

[@ericalewis5428]

Green tea, not tea tree and I don’t have a dog so even so, I’m good

[@journeyandjoy]

You got me hooked on essential oil! So many great benefits! I just got some sweet orange essential oil. It's like I just peeled oranges, so fresh! Will make some! Just need another spray bottle!

[@meandanitoo]

Great recipe, but I am curious to know how the baking soda doesn't kill the scent of the essential oil as it typically will neutralize most smells or odor...or does it act in this case as a salt to preserve the scent? Thanks!

[@veganvocalist4782]

Very true

[@brodrickwilliams44]

Will this ever develop mold or mildew if it sits in the bottle too long? Or should we use a preservative in addition to the ingredients in the video

[@mdmonirhossain7787]

I also love the smell of lemon essential oil, thanks for giving such a easy and simple air freshener recipe. I was finding very badly this kind of air freshener because of bad odor from my bathroom.

[@me4getz]

Does this spray leave any residue spots on dark fabric

CHECK THE DATE IT WAS PUBLISHED IN 2014 THAT IS CARSON SITTING UP!!!

[@matthewcox1093]

Will this eliminate odor or just mask it?

[@michelechastain]

I use a chopstick to help get the baking soda down through the funnel. :)

[@HayleyHomemaker]

Great video! I barely started making my own household cleaners because my baby is due in October and I'm trying to be more natural when it comes to cleaning. I do use febreeze after I vacuum my couches because I have 5 pets in the home, but I find that it runs out so quick and it's expensive. I'm definitely going to give this a try!

[@praythankful4906]

Lovely! We use peppermint for lots of things around our house. I have lemon EO - going to make some!

[@Dawn-zo2ny]

Does the baking soda ever clog the sprayer or does it dissolve all the way...? Thank you...

[@friederikestegemann3349]

It DID clog the nozzle, and I had to dump everything.

[@jaydaarielle9345]

I made this but orange scented and it really helped thank you so much. Btw febreeze gives ne a headache as well 😂😂😂

Does the smell last long n how long? Thanks in advance

Thanks for sharing! Wouldn't it be easier to mix the recipe if you had pour the baking soda in the bottle first then the essential oils?

hi....it will b easier to mix the water with baking soda in the measuring cups before hand so u dnt have to use the funnel just a little helpful tip..luv the videos keep them comming

[@kimmystew]

I made it straight away. Thanks. Its great for the dogs bed!!! Does leave a bit of a residue so I just aim more carefully now, for the fabric only.

[@TheDawn0310]

I just love your channel!!! I'm always learning something new!!!

[@MsCerise007]

How does the oil & water mix? & also doesn't the baking soda take the smell away from the oil like it does with other smells? Tell me how this works????

[@lilsass1960]

No the baking soda desolves with the water. Baking soda elimates order the oils just makes room smell good. Ive been using this DIY for years and the SAME Febreze bottle with no problems.

[@maithakhalid757]

does the scent last? I tried a recipe with rubbing alcohol + water + essential oil and my only problem is that after 20 minutes the scent subsides.

[@acajudi100]

Thank you. I mixed the baking soda and essence in a big jar with the water, and then pour it all in the spray bottle, using a funnel.

[@sharonisaac3994]

acajudi100 hi guys some advice from anyone who has made this in terms of bottling and selling them for a small profit pls? 🤗

I have 8 cats and 1 dog and this does not harm them. been using this remedy for over 1 yr. key thing. do not spray ur animals with it duh. if u feel like it, u can spray everything when they are not in the room wait 5 minutes then allow pets in room etc. for clogging issues I shake before each use. make sure u have the correct measurements of ingredients. I have had no problems at all

[@FaizSheikh]

did u use a plastic Spray bottle? doesn't the essential oil eats up the plastic??

[@fatimahhussain8234]

Faiz Sheikh no it doesn't and actually it works nicely the essential oil is diluted enough for it not to corrode the bottle.

[@hannahfaith6806]

It could be PET (polyethylene terephthalate) plastic, which does not get eaten up by essential oils

[@shanaedidgood]

Great vid. Thanks for sharing. I can't wait to try this when I get home.

+Mark Galvez Baking soda absorbs odors.

[@camuyana]

Advice that will help the person who posted the video to know of the danger of essential oils and those reading the comments about something that will be detrimental to a pet's health should not be taken as offensive. If you don't have a pet, this will not affect you but if you do and there are others who are willing to share their knowledge what natural ingredients can cause damage to a pet, then we should be grateful instead of feeling insulted. We are all here to contribute and that should be the purpose of KZbin users. We are trying to make each other's life more enjoyable and safe if we can provide the knowledge that we have. And I have done the research and yes essential oils are dangerous to pets, you have been advised of this so do it at your own risk.

[@IMBirdie76]

You are absolutly correct! Essential oils can be bad for pets and people, most are incredibly irritating and can cause phototoxic reactions on skin. They smell great, but you have a great point....beware of "natural" ingredients, they are chemicals just like any other and have their own risks. Thanks for supporting the other commenter, we should be gratefull that others are sharing information even if we don't like it!

[@kimspiration1111]

This is true, I was actually going to say this as well. I'm not an EO expert but I do use them. I have a cat so I do not spray anything with EOs or diffuse them etc. where my cat spends the most time. I believe that the ctirus oil are ones to really be concerned about. I'd advise researching safe oils for pets. Young Living has some so contact a YL rep. This is a great recipe though....we just need to be use different oils when pets are involved. Also if anyone has respiratory issues, I'd consult a doctor before using EO.

[@marcenahinojosa2043]

+Birdie R Thank you. I get bad rashes/burns from EO. My father-in-law is a pastor. He wanted to bless our first home but I told him I have reactions to EO. He said that his were from the Holy Land and very pure. Since I was a young bride and didn't want to offend my new in laws, I let him. Then he tried to anoint my head. I said no. He said ok. That night, I fell asleep in the chair and he drew a cross on my forehead with the oils. I ended up in the ER with a cross burned into my forehead. The scars are faded to where they are barely there, but after 20 years, He still does not like me because he thinks I am the devil. Please be careful with even the "purest oils".

[@IMBirdie76]

+Marcena Hinojosa Dear God! What on earth is wrong with that man? It is absolutely terrible that he did that when you told him in no uncertain terms not to. In-laws are already hard enough to get along with and the fact that he insults you by going against your wishes and continues to abuse you by judging your character is abhorrent and incredibly hypocritical. Such arrogance! I am glad you shared your experience with essential oils and how dangerous they can be for some people. "Natural" can mean so many things. Poison ivy is natural, but you wouldn't spray that all over your house!

[@joannekeryger7909]

...OMG I have allergies and am allergic to everything under the sun. I was going to comment about your father in law thinking you were possessed (lol) but you stated otherwise. You really need to have him speak with a doctor about those oils and your allergies, maybe you could teach him something even though it has been 20 years. Blessings (no pun intended lol).

[@PrismaticTear]

Another really nice scent for refreshing rooms, etc is ~Bergamot its a very nice, cheerful and uplifting scent.•°*˜ƸӜƷ

[@SouthernAngelsStamping]

Love all natural!! What a great tip!! God bless :)

[@DEEinBC]

What's the reason for adding baking soda? Also wondering why you mixed the essential oil with the baking soda prior to putting it into the bottle. Seems like an unnecessary step. I would have just put each in separately, added the water and shook the bottle.

[@laurendenise8144]

Dee Inbc Baking soda neutralizes odors... same thing as when you put a box of it in your fridge/freezer to absorb smells. Technically it doesn't matter how you mix it.... that's up to you. And btw... this stuff really does work!

[@deenavivek1954]

Oil and water dont mix, baking soda is kind of a solvent i guess..

[@lilsass1960]

[@Elyse90505]

You can also make one with lavender and other soothing scents for your bed. Perfect for spritzing on after you make your bed in the morning for all day freshness or spritz it on just before slipping under the sheets at night.

[@CountryLissa]

I'm going to make this! My hubby and I recently adopted a cat from the local shelter - his name is Ranger - and I can spray this in the bathroom to hide any smells from the litter box! :) I also love the smell of lemon. It makes everything seem so clean and fresh!

[@DoItOnaDime]

Sure! I just didn't want to dirty another pitcher :)

[@katieparavai5111]

DoItOnaDime Maybe you could put the baking soda in the funnel and then put the water in the funnel to push the rest of the baking soda through

[@user-ht8im9cz5e]

I have tried natural oil + alchohol mix before and the tip og the spray always clogged w/ oil if i didnt use them regularly. I really hope it works this time.

I prefer to put lemon juice rather then essential oil, it's safer for pets and just smells less potent

[@francesporter5578]

Best broccoli ever

[@ambreeniramahmad8315]

[@Mrsmetamorphosis2012]

I have done this with vinegar, water, and e. oil-works great.

[@jwenkim3828]

Instead of using a funnel that takes a lot of time to get the mixture into the bottle, an alternative would be paper or baking sheet or similar material. Cut the paper into desired size. Put the mixture into the cut paper. Then, transfer! Tap the paper in case mixture sticks on it.

[@SandTguy]

First I would like to say. I really do like Your videos a lot they are very helpful to me. But hears the funny thing I'm a guy lol. I had a question I have heard that You have to use glass spray bottles when using esstrole oils to make natal cleanser or air freshners. Because if you use a plastic bottle it will eat the bottom out of the plastic spay bottle. I was wondering is this true because I just went out a got 3 plastic spay bottles from HomeDepot. I really do not want to take them back. Thanks

[@DoItOnaDime]

I haven't heard that! It's worked fine for me and I have been using them for years :)

[@siiiriously3226]

DoItOnaDime it´s true, but just if you use it pure in plastic bottles. when you mix it with water it shouldn´t be a problem.

[@LadyLahdeedah]

S&Tguy If the oil is diluted it can be put in plastic bottles. However, when concentrated, it needs to be put in glass bottles.

[@princessallenjay1874]

[@RemodelingHQ]

gonna give this a try.... Sounds like a fresh idea

[@juceelucee2841]

People who own Pets should not use any Chemical/Commercial Sprays or Laundry detergents either on or around them! Just be smart when being a Pet owner and/or Parent.

is the baking soda needed for it or does it form part of the cleaning agent?
