I love essential oils and the simplicity of making my own natural room and linen spray. I started experimenting with different blends, and the results were incredible! I'm excited to share my favorite room spray recipe with you. This mixture is the one I love, but remember, you can change the essential oils to your favorite scents and blends.

Homemade Room Spray Ingredients

  • Distilled Water: 1 cup (This prevents bacterial growth. Tap water can introduce impurities.)
  • Witch Hazel (alcohol-free): 2 tablespoons (Acts as an emulsifier, helping the essential oils blend with the water and has mild disinfectant properties.)
  • Essential Oils: 40-60 drops total (Choose your favorite blend or single oils. See my favorite blend below.)
  • Optional - Vegetable Glycerin: 1 teaspoon (Helps the scent linger longer and adds a slight moisturizing effect to linens.)
  • Amber Glass Spray Bottles

My Favorite Essential Oil Blend (Floral Bloom):

Rose geranium and ylang-ylang create a beautiful floral bouquet, while bergamot adds a touch of brightness. Grapefruit's citrus helps keep the floral scent from becoming too heavy. This blend is perfect for bedrooms, bathrooms, or any space to add a fresh floral scent. This blend is very subtle and not overpowering, which is why I love it.

Instructions:

  1. Blend the Oils: Combine the witch hazel and your chosen essential oils in a small bowl. Stir gently.
  2. Fill the Bottle: Pour the distilled water into a dark glass spray bottle using a funnel.
  3. Combine Ingredients: Add the witch hazel and essential oil mixture to the bottle. If desired, add the vegetable glycerin.
  4. Shake Well: Secure the spray nozzle and shake vigorously for 30 seconds to combine.
  5. Spray & Enjoy: Lightly mist your rooms or linens from about 12 inches away. Shake before each use.

Tips for Your Room Spray:

  • Dark Glass Bottles: Essential oils can degrade plastic, so opt for dark glass bottles.
  • Test on Fabrics: If spraying on delicate fabrics, test on a hidden area first.
  • Shake Before Use: Essential oils can separate, so shake well before each spray.
  • Storage: Store your spray in a cool, dark place.
