Secret To Keep Your Home Smelling Amazing 👌|| DIY Air fresher || HOMEMADE deodorizer

[@kgraham5820]

If you’ve ever bought those air fresheners that have the gel beads inside, after they’ve dried up, empty out the container, clean them up and reuse them. Since they already have the lids cut out, They’re great for this idea. I also used one to hold baking soda and put it in my fridge. It looks nicer than having just an open box of baking soda sitting in there. Thanks for sharing your wisdom! Much appreciated!

[@kamiahbundy4972]

Thank you so much! As soon as she said fabric softener I thought; no. Now, I'm not familiar with these bead products, who makes them? Also, about how much dried lavender and where do you buy that? Actually - if you don't mind - can I just have your recipe with measurements? ☺

[@lindan8729]

You’re right. 👍

[@emmsue1053]

I agree about Fab Soft, never use on towels or any fabric that needs to absorbent because the Fab Soft leaves a coating which will build.. I do use it sometimes for clothes but have a well watered down version I mix myself. Its so not good for the water quality or the seas.. Those dreadful plastic scented "balls" also. Fish are being poisoned! I have pets & never forget their sense of smell is hundred of times more sensitive than ours. I think if thongs are kept clean & fairly uncluttered a home does not need to be "perfumed" all the time as Melissa mentioned.

[@mark-mj5dl]

what oil from the kitchen, olive oil?

[@carolb3122]

You also could use a nail and hammer to make holes in the jar lid with the lid off the jar. I would be afraid of ruining and dulling my knife. After making holes from the top down, turn the lid upside down on a hard, flat surface with a piece of cloth under it (so the lid won’t get scratched) and use the hammer to flatten the sharp edges of the holes punched by the nail and hammer.

[@carolb3122]

[@powerWithinUs4055]

Spice jars, like cinnamon, have a shaker top, grated Parmesan, wash and save container. Diatomaceous earth, will absorb the essential oil, takes a long time to dry out, just re-moisten and keep going. Cloves are excellent to repel wasps, save the little bags that garlic comes in, fill to make a sac of cloves to be used for a nice scent or baseboards to repel insects and rodents. Doesn’t seem to work long term to keep dog walkers away, though.

[@Pinkpineappletarot]

I am definitely going to try your recipe! Looks great. Do you have any recipes that work to lessen the smell of second hand smoke? Many cheers. Peace.

[@tinytt854]

Have the smoker smoke outside.

It would be nice with a thin ribbon tied around the bottom of the lid and tied in a bow ! Thank you for your wonderful idea 😊

Amazing imagination gives me a very beautiful pot of natural deodoriser, thank you for the beautiful idea 💡

If you run a woven natural ribbon through the air vents it would wick the aromatic essence. Just need to cloves and I'm trying this one.

Hide it behind a plant or picture

Can a person use sea salt for this? or is it bettet to use coarse rock salt which leads to my next question. Where in the world can I find rock salt?? I've checked out a few stores with no luck.

[@RealisticSuwey]

Hi there Is OK to use sea salt if that is what you have available? Do add some sodium bicarbonate to make it more effective 😉

Can you use Epsom salts? 😊

[@RealisticSuwey]

I think Epson is quite expensive to use for this, sea salt is more cheaper.
