Homemade Air Freshening Spray
Purchase or use a non-aerosol refillable spray bottle that
has a mist setting. Using an old cleaning bottle, like Windex, will do just
fine.
Add about a quarter of an inch of mouthwash to the bottom of
your bottle and fill your bottle with water.
Gently mist the air as needed.
Fabric Sprays
Use a bottle similar to the one used above.
Place several drops of your favorite essential oils or
perfume to the bottle and fill with water. Gently mist your linens, rugs,
furniture etc. for a fresh smelling home.
For a more organic scent use lavender or your favorite
flower pedals (I use peonies) and add them to the spray bottle. Add water which
will bring out the scent that you have chosen. You can leave the pedals in the
bottle or strain them out.
Mist your fabrics and the air as needed.
Another trick to
saving money is to always use a rag instead of paper towel for your basic
cleaning. My rags include dishtowels, washcloths, and old t-shirts. When done,
rinse thoroughly and place your rags in their own bin or pail beside or on top
of the washer. When it is full wash your load of rags using my laundry
detergent recipe.
