Room scents are a great way to create a relaxing or festive mood in the home. But if you are not keen on artificial air fresheners or using essential oils, then you’ll like this DIY video on cooking up your own natural room scents.
These recipes all use citrus along with a few herbs and spices.
- oranges, cloves, cinnamon, water
- lemon, vanilla, rosemary, water
- lime, thyme, mint, vanilla, water
All you have to do is put the ingredients together in a mason jar and then pour it into a pot and heat and simmer the mixture on the stove.
After letting the ingredients come to a boil let it cool off and spread the aroma in your home. I think you could also add your cooled mixture back into the mason jar and put them into the room you would like to have the aroma.
These seem like a great idea to use if you’ve got a smell you want to get rid of in the kitchen too! With the holiday season around the corner, I think I’ll be giving these a try.
