Hate filling your home with chemicals? Well here is a great solution to make your home smell deliciously wonderful this fall the natural way! I love the smell of essential oils (and all their benefits) so I decided to make this great natural home fragrance with some oils I had on hand. By putting them in a handmade reed diffuser with some alcohol and water, you can just let the oils do their thing without having to light anything or turn any electric devices on!
Oh my goodness if you could only smell this thing! It smells so good and makes me feel healthier haha... I know that's not necessarily the case, but it's at least making me feel that way! The cost really varies based on how many oils you want to use in the mix and what brand you get.

SUPPLIES:
STEP 1: Measure your bamboo skewers
STEP 2: Cut your skewers
STEP 3: Add flags (optional)
STEP 4: Add water
STEP 5: Add gin, vodka, or rubbing alcohol
STEP 6: Add your skewers
Look how cute this lil' thing is...
You could make a million mixtures with oils to cater to what you like or to the season. And it only takes a couple of drops of each oil so you could refill it loads and loads!!
