Making Your Own Room Fresheners

Make your own aromatherapy room fresheners, including room sprays and pot pourri, to create a tranquil atmosphere that you can relax in.

Making Pot Pourri

Place a bowl of pot pourri on your window sill, so breezes can waft the scents around.

Gather the ingredients for your blend. Include a fixative, such as orris root powder, for preservation.
Mix the dry ingredients in the bowl, breaking up any larger ingredients into smaller pieces.
Now add some fragrant oils and stir vigorously.
Place all the ingredients in a glass container and seal it tightly.
Leave the pot purri for two weeks in a cool dark place, stirring it daily for the first three days.
After a few months your pot pourri may need a boost, simply add more oils and repeat steps 3-5 above.
Pot pourri can contain any dried fruits and flowers that you like, such as apples, cherries and rose petals.

Making Your Room Spray

A small bottle with a pump spray nozzle allows you to fragrance a room in moments when you do not wan to use a vaporiser or oil burner. Spray bottles are portable and immediate, enabling you to spray any room at any time. Use a room spray to get rid of bad odours.
