How to make your own natural air fresheners


Are you tired of using chemical-laden air fresheners that are not only bad for the environment but also for your health? Well, the good news is that you can easily make your own natural air fresheners at home using simple ingredients. Not only will they smell great, but they will also have a positive impact on your health and the environment.

Here are some easy DIY natural air freshener recipes that you can try at home:

  1. Citrus Air Freshener Cut a few slices of citrus fruits like lemon, lime or orange and put them in a jar. Add a few sprigs of rosemary or mint and fill the jar with water. Place the jar in a sunny spot and let the ingredients infuse for a few days. You can use this mixture to freshen up any room in your house.

  2. Essential Oil Air Freshener In a spray bottle, mix 10-20 drops of your favorite essential oil with water. Shake well before use and spray it in any room that needs freshening up. Lavender, peppermint, and eucalyptus are great options for essential oils.

  3. Baking Soda Air Freshener Mix ½ cup of baking soda with 10-20 drops of your favorite essential oil. Pour the mixture into a jar and poke a few holes in the lid. You can place this jar in any room that needs freshening up, and it will absorb any unwanted odors.

  4. Simmer Pot Air Freshener In a pot, mix a few cinnamon sticks, a few slices of lemon, and a few sprigs of rosemary or thyme. Add enough water to cover the ingredients and let it simmer on low heat for a few hours. This will create a warm and inviting aroma throughout your home.
