Homeliness largely depends on how and what it smells in your home. If the air is stale and stale, then hoping for a pleasant stay is probably not worth it. Of course, there are many ways to fix this. In particular, you can make the simplest air freshener with your own hands.
What is needed for this
- Ceramic bottles with attractive shapes.
- Any baby oil.
- Essential oils according to your preference.
- Vodka.
- Small reed sticks (can be bought at needlework stores).
Working process
First, pour baby oil into the bottle. It should reach approximately the middle of the vessel. After that, you need to add a few drops of the essential oil that suits you and whose aroma you like. Be sure to add a couple of tablespoons of vodka.
This is done so that the air freshener (with your own hands to make it simple enough) can function: alcohol dilutes the oils, allowing them to soak into the reeds.
How to use cane
We make a reservation that for these purposes it is necessary to take such sticks, the length of which is twice as high as the height of the ceramic vessel. They are put in oil, kept for about three days, turned over on the other side. This should be done several times, periodically washing them with warm water and soap. Over time, it will be necessary to turn over less often, since the essential oils themselves will move along the reed pores.
Another variant
This home air freshener is somewhat more difficult to manufacture, but it looks much more interesting, and its effectiveness is much higher. It is based on ordinary food gelatin, which can be bought literally at any grocery store.
What is needed
In this case, the gel freshener is included in the air freshener, food coloring, essential oils and a little cinnamon. In addition, pre-find some dishes made of transparent glass that will successfully fit into the interior of your home.
Working process
Two tablespoons of gelatin are placed on a glass of water, after which it is dissolved, slowly stirring over not too high a fire. When the solution becomes completely homogeneous, dyes, essential oils and cinnamon are mixed into it.
At the bottom of the dishes you can lay beautiful stones, shells of marine mollusks or something like that. Having established your creation, you should as carefully as possible fill it with prepared gelatin. So you made your own air freshener!
Third way
It is ideal for those who like the smell of natural cinnamon. You will need a bottle, cinnamon, alcohol and mineral water. If you want a more intense smell, an alcohol extract of the same cinnamon is useful.
In addition, you need to get rattan sticks and food colors. Pour 100 ml of mineral water, 700 ml of alcohol and 200 ml of extract into a bowl. Mix, gradually adding dye. Pour the resulting liquid into a suitable vessel, put natural cinnamon sticks in it and put rattan sticks.
Benefits
All! Anyone can make such an air freshener with their own hands. The advantage of all the above formulations is their complete naturalness. They are completely harmless to health and help to improve mood and well-being exclusively by natural methods!
