How to make a homemade room freshener

 


FRESHEN YOUR HOME NATURALLY WITH HOMEMADE LEMON ROOM FRESHENER

INSTRUCTIONS:


  1. Gather Fresh Lemons: Start by selecting 2-3 fresh lemons from your kitchen. Lemons not only impart a refreshing citrus scent but also contain natural antibacterial properties that help neutralize odors.
  2. Slice the Lemons: Using a sharp knife, thinly slice the lemons into rounds. The number of slices you need will depend on the size of your container and the intensity of fragrance desired.
  3. Prepare a Glass Jar or Spray Bottle: Choose a clean glass jar or spray bottle to store your homemade room freshener. Glass is preferred as it won't react with the citrus oils.
  4. Add Lemon Slices to the Container: Place the lemon slices into the glass jar or spray bottle, arranging them evenly to maximize surface area.
  5. Optional: Add Essential Oils (if desired): For an extra boost of fragrance, add a few drops of your favorite essential oils to the container. Lavender, peppermint, and eucalyptus are popular choices that pair well with the fresh scent of lemon.
  6. Fill with Distilled Water: Pour distilled water into the container, covering the lemon slices completely. Leave a little space at the top to allow for shaking or stirring.
  7. Let it Infuse: Place the lid securely on the container and allow the mixture to infuse for at least 24 hours. This allows the lemon oils and essential oils (if added) to meld together and release their aromatic properties.
  8. Use as Needed: Once the room freshener has infused, it's ready to use. You can either leave the container open to allow the fragrance to naturally diffuse into the air or use it as a spray by transferring the mixture into a spray bottle.
  9. Refresh as Desired: As the fragrance begins to fade, simply add more distilled water to the container and replace the lemon slices to refresh the room freshener.


With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a homemade lemon room freshener that not only keeps your home smelling fresh but also promotes a healthy and inviting environment. Embrace the natural fragrance of lemon and enjoy the benefits of a clean and revitalizing atmosphere throughout your home
