DIY Room Spray
By AJ of Handjobs (for the Home) - with adaptations

Ingredients & Supplies*
*minus a tbsp & funnel
You'll need:
8 drops Fragrance Oil
1 tbsp Rubbing alcohol/Witch Hazel
100ml Spray bottle
Filtered/Bottled Water


1. Place 8 drops of essential oil in a spray bottle. 
2. Add a tablespoon of alcohol to the bottle. (use a funnel)
3. Fill the rest up with water.
4. Shake. Allow it to sit for a few hours before using.
5. Shake before spray.

Store it in a cool dry place.

Notes:
- Zaire recommends using Isocol Antiseptic Rubbing Alcohol 345mL $9.71 (Coles)
- I love the Cranberry Joy Home Fragrance Oil 10 ml $10  (Body Shop)
- Recommended Fragrance Oils from me, would be something from the Body Shop ($10 for 10ml). And the Crabtree & Evelyn range (around $15-17).
- With oils brand is important, as it's quality stuff vs $2+ Shop ones which don't last as long.
- I got my spray bottles in travel packs (switch the bottles) for $3 (for 3) from the Reject Shop. 

Costs
10ml Fragrance Oil $10 (10 uses?)
Rubbing alcohol $10 (but you can use it 30+ times)
100ml Spray bottle (3 for $3)
Filtered/Bottled Water (free-$1)

Total: $23 (makes 3, just need more bottles)
  • These would make great gifts, esp for those who have small offices.
  • For labels you can create tags (not rec you use a sticker, in case you change oils), and tie them around the bottle using twine/string of some sort.
