DIY Scented Room Spray | Pretty Handy Girl

I’m not exactly known for my short and sweet tutorials. But, I assure you this recipe for making DIY scented room spray is exactly that…short and sweet! What I like best about this DIY room spray is that it uses natural ingredients and natural scents. The chemical or fake smell of commercially bought room deodorizers really bothers me.

Ingredients & Supplies:

DIY Scented Room Spray | Pretty Handy Girl

  • Spray bottles (found at Dollar Tree)
  • Distilled water
  • Essential Oils (lavendar, lemon, rosemary, cinnamon, cranberry)
  • Avery Kraft Brown Labels (22808)
  • Ribbon or twine

Optional: shape cutting scissors

 

Instructions:

Drop approximately 15 drops of each essential oil in the bottom of a squirt bottle. These are a few of the scents I experimented with:

  • Lemon + Lavendar
  • Lavendar + Rosemary
  • Lemon + Rosemary
  • Rosemary + Cinnamon
  • Cranberry + Cinnamon

If you are feeling less adventurous, you can stick to one scent and add 20 drops to the bottle.

Fill the rest of the bottle with distilled water. (You might wish to have labels already pre-printed or put a sticky note on each so you don’t forget which concoction you have inside.)

Print your labels. If you desire to fancy them up, cut around the edges with shape scissors. Tie a ribbon around the neck and give them out as favors or gifts this holiday season!

You’d probably make the gift recipient even happier if you include a printed copy of the recipe ;-).

I absolutely love those festive bottles for this and can’t believe you found them at dollar tree!! I will have to look for them. I just ordered some other containers online, expensive.

Debi, less impurities so it should keep longer and the fragrance is better. Some tap water is chlorinated, which might effect the scent.

Regina,

I haven’t noticed, but I use up my bottle in a year. LOL, you are so right on the typo. Thanks for pointing that out.

I have been reading other spray ‘recipes’ and they add alcohol (vodka) to keep the scents from fading. Without alcohol do you find that the scents fade? Also, I noticed that Lavender is spelled wrong on the spray bottle labels.

Why do you have to use distilled or filtered water? Would tap water be ok?
Also, do you know how long these will keep fresh?
Thank you!! I can’t stand fake scents either, and I’m oober excited to try some of these!! 😀
