Supplies

• 4 ounce glass or plastic bottles with a spray top (I prefer dark to help the oils last longer)
• Essential Oils - All your favorites or favorite combinations
• Witch hazel - This helps the oils mix well with water
• Distilled water - just in case your tap water has any scent or unnecessary extras
• Mini funnel or bendable plastic cup, essential oil droppers if needed.

Making DIY Room Spray

These amber glass bottles came with a spray top and this cute little funnel.

However, if you don't have a little funnel you can use a plastic cup like the one above and pinch it to pour into your bottle.

Using dark bottles helps keep the light out from your home or the sun. This will keep them from expiring too soon.

I'm also using witch hazel to combine the oils with distilled water. Some people don't like the smell of witch hazel. You can substitute grain alcohol or a high-quality vodka. However, I think that these alcohols have their own scent so it's a matter of preference.

Distilled water is preferred over tap water because some people have added chemicals or sulfur which may contaminate or change the way the spray smells or works.

Essential Oil Room Spray Recipes

Here are a few general essential oil combinations that I like. Feel free to make your own blend. Note that some essential oils are very strong while others are not strong at all. When creating your own, start with a few drops and continue to add as much as you like until you get the scent you want.

If you like my labels you can click on one and it will take you to a pdf filled with labels that you can print. I used this brown kraft paper and Mod Podge to create and glue my labels to the bottles but regular printer paper and white glue will work just fine.

If you already have some essential oils in your craft stash then this is a no-brainer. Using your favorite scent, combo, or blend to make a room spray is perfect for refreshing any room and lifting your mood.
