What is an easy way to make my house smell amazing?
What is an easy DIY for a home scent that lasts in the house? Plug ins, oils, incense never seem to last. I would love to do something that I can leave out at all times, that does not have to be burned, and is safe for pets.

Recycle a slow cooker, fill w water & cinnamon, lasts for days. Heat on lowest setting n watch the water level.
Karen has the right idea. You can find a used slow cooker at a thrift store. You can use vanilla, lemon.... lots of different scents. I'm not good at essential oils, but I'm sure there must be a way to use them also. Good luck.
I use the laundry scent boosters with a couple of drops of water in one of the wax melt devices that use a light bulb to warm them. The house smells like fresh laundry all the time and it lasts for a day or so even if I don't keep it on all the time.
Hi Jennifer - We make our own diffuser and candles. You can obviously alter the scents as needed. Hope this helps! Hugs, Holly

Bags of cinnamon scented pine cones are at most craft stores around the Pacific NW....not sure other locales.
i also fill my stainless kitchen sink with hot water, a squirt of dish detergent, and a splash of febreeze scented Mr.Clean (Target) and let it sit all day. When it cools, pull the drain plug and it makes the sink shine, garbage disposal degunk, and house smells fresh.
You can try this 3 tablespoons of fabric softener, 1 tablespoon of baking soda, 3 cups of lukewarm water in a sprayer bottle , shake it and spray it around or and I would soak some cotton balls and put in container out of sight and let the smell aroma around in rooms, You Decide? and try what is best for you.
Put a few drops of your favorite essential on the return air filter. When the AC comes on your whole house will smell amazing. Reapply as needed.
older round slow cookers with apple peel, orange peel, cinnamon sticks etc. smell really good in one of these old cookers
