How to Make DIY Room Spray With Essential Oils

If you’re on a natural living journey too, it doesn’t take long to realize that this is a long game. It takes time to switch the products you use in your home to more natural alternatives. When I first started, I aimed to replace “easy” items in my home. As soon as I ran out of something, I looked to see if there was a way I could make it or replace it with something more natural. Examples of those easy items are things like air fresheners, candles, cleaners, body wash and things like this room spray.

I love being able to make my own homemade natural products because you can choose the ingredients you use, control the scents and they’re almost always more cost effective. This DIY room spray hits all those points. It’s inexpensive to make and it’s made with natural ingredients, which are much better for your health than any conventional product. It also smells amazing and is great to use in any room in the house. Try it in the bathroom, spray it on sheets as a linen spray, use it to remove nasty orders from the garbage and more. Let me show you how easy it is to make!
