DIY Air Freshener Spray

I love having homemade air fresheners throughout the home to spray when needed.

The beauty of making your own sprays with essential oils is that not only do they freshen the room, but they can also promote uplifting feelings, reduce stress, or give you a natural boost of energy.

Unfortunately, your Febreze can’t do that!

To make your own bathroom air freshener spray you need:

Glass spray bottle (I use a 4-ounce spray bottle but you can easily adjust the recipe to make a smaller or larger batch if desired.)
Essential Oils
Witch Hazel
Distilled water

Essential Oil Blends for Natural Air Freshener for Bathroom

Fresh

10 drops lemon
10 drops rosemary
10 drops spearmint

Citrus

10 drops lemon
10 drops lime
10 drops wild orange

Floral

10 drops lavender
10 drops jasmine
10 drops patchouli

Clean

10 drops lemon
10 drops tea tree
10 drops peppermint

Relaxing

10 drops lavender
10 drops chamomile

DIY Poo Pourri Spray

(Refer to recipe card at the bottom of the post for exact measurements.)

Add the essential oils and witch hazel to a glass spray bottle. It is always best to use glass when making anything with essential oils, as the oils can break down plastic over time.

Top off the spray bottle with water, secure spray top, and shake well to combine all ingredients

Mist into the air as needed. You can also spray inside the toilet bowl, on bath mats, or on the shower curtains to freshen up.

Why Make Air Freshener?

So now you see how simple it is to make your own air freshener, but why mess with it?

Unfortunately, conventional air fresheners bought from the store are loaded with harsh ingredients that can affect indoor air quality.

Air fresheners, candles, plug-ins, etc., use artificial fragrances and other ingredients that can disrupt endocrine, reproductive organs, irritate the skin, eyes, and respiratory system.

These sprays can be harmful if breathed in or if they get in the eyes.

Making your own takes away that risk; it is super simple and is cost-effective. Plus, you can customize it for any scent that you want!

So give this homemade bathroom air freshener a try, and let me know what you think in the comments below.
