Homemade Febreze Room Spray Natural- 3 Ingredients

It's so easy and cost effective to make your own homemade Febreze room spray. It only takes 3 ingredients and is simple to make. I have 2 recipes to share that use essential oils and natural ingredients. One room spray is made with baking soda, the other room spray with alcohol, witch hazel or unflavored vodka. These homemade Febreze room sprays will eliminate odors and leave your house smelling fresh and clean!
The best spray bottles are glass as found here: amzn.to/2AbzqzN
Witch Hazel: amzn.to/3dxmh2i
Or buy a plastic spray bottle from the dollar store. Sometimes the dollar store ones tend to clog and not spray as well. Just be aware.
Recipe #1
2 cups distilled water
1/2 cup witch hazel OR rubbing alcohol OR unflavored vodka
15-20 drops of essential oil
1. Mix essential oils with liquid of choice
2. Place in a spray bottle and shake to incorporate before each use.
3. Spray as an air freshener, fabric refresher or linen spray
Recipe #2
2 cups distilled water
1/4 cup baking soda
20-30 drops of essential oil
1. Mix baking soda and essential oils together
2. Add water and pour into spray bottle, shake to incorporate
3. Shake before each use
4. Spray as an air freshener
Recipe #3- no essential oils
(I don't use the above spray enough to hurt my dog, nor ever spray my dogs bedding or toys. But if you want to have no essential oils around your dog or cat...)
2 cups distilled water
1/4 cup baking soda
3 tsp. isopropyl rubbing alcohol
1. Mix water and baking soda
2. Pour in spray bottle- add rubbing alcohol
3. Shake to incorporate and spray as air freshener.
4. Shake before each use.

I love your kitchen. There's nothing like having the sink with a window. Thank you for your recipe I am so going to try this🎉

[@sandysteinbrook]

Hello! Just to let you know, the baking soda over time builds up so make the other one or half the amount of baking soda.

[@rachelp000]

I LOVE this recipe! My FAVORITE essential oil combo is tea tree, blood orange, and lemon! It’s so fresh and natural smelling. I also use that combo in my natural vinegar cleaner!

[@sandysteinbrook]

I love when people share their ideas! I will have to try that combo.

[@lindaenderson7998]

@Rachel Pinson, when you said (in your last sentence), “in my natural vinegar cleaner,” what is that method, and what do you clean with it please? We just installed plank hardwood floors + smooth tiles in rec. room, where we play pool, kitchen, hallway & baths. I’ve been using Swiffer upright dusters and then Swiffer Wet Jet; either that or Bono WetJet, and it’s getting a little too expensive to use on a 4,000 sq ft house! Besides, they both streak on the tile! What would you recommend? Thank you in advance for responding, my dear! I certainly appreciate it! 👍🤛🏼👏😸

[@christinabarker5648]

What a great idea🌴 I will have to definitely try this!

[@sandysteinbrook]

Let me know which combination you use for your DIY spray!

[@sandysteinbrook]

Hi guys! Let me know in the comments which room spray recipe you tried and which is your favorite!

[@leapintothewild]

Funnel 😂 I’m sure you know by now. I’ve made a 50/50 witch hazel and water spray with lavender and rosemary for years and keep it on my bedside table for pillow spray! When I go to my room at night, I spray my pillows and comforter a little, and by the time I’ve changed, brushed my teeth and finished skin care, it’s dried and softly fragrant, and I believe it helps me fall asleep. Just discovered your channel and really liking your natural bent, right down my alley.

[@sandysteinbrook]

@@leapintothewild Oh, I love that idea! I am going to make some of your recipe. Thanks for watching!

[@loribecchi8819]

wow, I used REAL stuff on my microfiber couch yesterday (unstoppables one) and it made white spots on the furniture! I had to use alcohol (which is a great cleaner for microfiber) to get them off! I have used Febreze brand and I don't remember it ever doing that.

[@charlakaytexas1414]

I had no idea alcohol was good to clean microfiber, thank you so much

[@cgp4Jesus]

Enjoyed the video!! Thank you for sharing great money and safer Freshner recipes . God bless you and your family ❤️

[@sandysteinbrook]

Chemicals are in everything anymore. We really need to do our best to keep the chemical overload out of our products.

[@melsterifficmama1808]

Just what I was looking for!

[@sandysteinbrook]

Great! Let me know which one you make.

[@IMOO1896]

Everything I’ve read says if you use vodka, then no water should be added because it dilutes the unscented alcohol, which isn’t necessary. Just a thought.

[@sandysteinbrook]

Thank you for sharing! I will try it without water also and see how the vodka holds the smell.

[@moonpleiades99]

Thank you so much for this! 🌿💗🌿

[@sandysteinbrook]

You're welcome! The one without the baking soda is definitely the better one since the baking soda can leave a film when it lands on a surface. Mostly if it is a dark surface.

[@moonpleiades99]

@@sandysteinbrook The one without the baking soda is the one I made. It came out great! Thank you again. 🌸❤️🌸

[@tinam2696]

Fabreeze is made by Procter & Gamble. P&G TORTURES animals 😢😿 So I make my own "Fabreeze" too.

[@chrystalstevenson3575]

Great idea I have oils so I'll probably use the oils. No vodka in my house. We don't drink alcohol in our house.

[@sandysteinbrook]

Try to make the one with baking soda instead!

[@IMOO1896]

I don’t drink alcohol at all either, but I’ve bought vodka for projects like this, and Everclear grain alcohol to make hand sanitizer. No temptation.

[@lynettebroussard1572]

I use witch hazel.

[@PatriciaLane-x2p]

Essential oil! How can spraying oil on fabric be good? Oil and water don’t mix please explain

[@iknownothing-49]

Great! Thanks so much

[@sandysteinbrook]

You're welcome! Thanks for watching!

[@00clgordon]

Could you do a video on how you make your own body spray/perfume? Thanks Sandy!! 😊

[@sandysteinbrook]

I actually don't use perfume. I used to, and love the smell but it just wasn't worth it to me. I did a video on the thyroid and perfume. "Protect Your Thyroid- The Dangers of Perfume & Body Spray" kzbin.info/www/bejne/epfEnYmor6tsqsk I know a lot of people use essential oil as their perfume. But I haven't found one yet. Do you have one you like?

[@happyface2373]

Too much baking soda leaves a film

[@nicolicari4962]

She really said “ and this thing, I don’t know what it’s called”

[@jenniferduncan4490]

Yes she did, I guess someone told her what it was

[@sandysteinbrook]

Lol!

Someone did. Lol!

How do you make DIY tide to go? 😆

Thank you!

You're welcome, Alyssa! :)

[@alyssapeters6271]

I just made this! I love it! and I can reuse my empty febrezze bottle, WIN WIN!!!

[@valbrooks2699]

Is there apple scent oil or pumpkin?

[@ess80wi]

What if you let water sit for 24 hours from tap or boil and let sit

[@sandysteinbrook]

Boil and then let it sit until cool. That will boil the contaminants out. It will cool down rather quickly.

[@ess80wi]

@@sandysteinbrook thank you for the reply, and information.

[@jenniferlowery6277]

My thing with baking soda it get stuck in the hose part how do u stop that

[@sandysteinbrook]

Honestly...just leave it out. I found that it was leaving white residue on some of my stuff that was dark so I just said forget that kind and I make it without the baking soda.

[@jenniferlowery6277]

@@sandysteinbrook ok thanks

[@cheekymonkeygirl3378]

You said it dissipates quickly. His long did this DIY last?

[@Persida_]

A funnel!!!!!

[@sandysteinbrook]

Lol! I could not remember at all what that things was called.

[@Persida_]

Sandy Steinbrook I thought it was hilarious!!!!! I made the fabric spray & love it thank you!!!!!!

[@oatmealwithberries3257]

Is this like a fabric or air spray?

[@sandysteinbrook]

It will freshen Both. If you are going to use it for fabric, make the one with NO making soda. Baking soda can leave a residue on fabric.

[@joycelyntaylor5792]

Are fragrance oils ok for your recipes?

[@sandysteinbrook]

Since you are only spraying in the air, I would think so. I choose essential oils because they are chemical free. Fragrance oils may be also.

[@joshuatan8061]

Is filter boil water ok?

[@joshuatan8061]

Tq

[@sandysteinbrook]

Yes, Joshua! You can boil water instead of using distilled water and that will work too!

[@joshuatan8061]

@@sandysteinbrook ok tqvm

[@AIMAGINEWORLD777]

I just used fabric softener and got a horrible headache. Never again

[@ess80wi]

Or well water

[@PatriciaLane-x2p]

Ok found no oil

[@ng3069]

You're not suppose to put essential oils in plastic.

[@sandysteinbrook]

I have actually heard that before, but didn't have any glass bottles when I made the spray. Thanks for the tip!

[@dianeedouard7266]

Why ?

[@rachelbarnett6890]

My oil diffuser's made of plastic...

[@christinemoreno6106]

Because the essential oil ruins the plastic, over time though. So, it's suggested to use glass, however, not necessary.
