Step 2: Add Oil

Sprinkle a few drops of essential oils on your cotton balls. About 5-10 drops per cotton ball works well. My Favorite blend is Lavender and Lemongrass

Step 3: Place In Vacuum

Just place the cotton ball inside your vacuum bag. I also add a few essential oil drops directly on the filter of my Miele, just to make the aroma a bit stronger.

On my Bagless Stick Dyson - I add a few drop on the cloth filter which is located on the top handle and toss a cotton ball in the dust canister.

    I have always loved putting scent on the light bulb but I enjoy on the vacuum also. Easy perks to freshen up quickly 😊
