Procedure: In a small mixing, container adds 2 tablespoons of safflower oil, sunflower oil, olive oil, or a plant oil you have in your pantry and add up to 6 drops of essential oil and mix well.

You can add 2 tablespoons of your favorite sea salt, dried or fresh herbs and flowers, and/or baking soda. Fill the foot basin with warm to hot water; a temperature that feels good to you.

Homemade air freshener is wonderful, but it is my cabinets and drawers that sometimes need freshening. Homemade drawer fresheners aren't a new idea, but they are a simple and cost-effective way to add a fresh clean fragrance to your dresser drawers or add a special touch to your wardrobe. They can also be made from fully natural ingredients, and are reusable! Why use Homemade Fresheners for Drawer? The chemical fragrance we purchased from the market that includes conventionally scented laundry detergent. Those laundry detergents and fabric softeners are associated with such items as brain damage and cancer. And can sometimes trigger allergic responses from people who suffer from allergies. Now I'm using natural alternatives but they also don't leave a permanent fragrance on clothes. I'd just skip the toxins so drawer sachets and closets are an easy, natural way to freshen my clothes and drawers. Sachets offer an easy solution to a common issue that has been in storage for a while affecting cabinets and drawers. When fabric products sit in a wardrobe, dresser, or storage tote unused for a long time, they can take on a musty smell that can require several washes to get rid of completely, the same for the drawers and cabinets. But you can avoid the musty smell from becoming a problem in the first place by simply keeping a few scented sachets in your closets. But what good are those sachets if you don't like how they smell, or if you think the fragrance is too strong? Therefore, I suggest that you make your own!

How to Use It? To help keep the fabric new, store sachets wherever musty odors exist. Place one in each cabinet, put a few in each wardrobe, or even tuck one into your winter coat pocket to keep it smelling new in warmer weather! Not only will your sachets keep the musty warehouse smell from taking on your clothing, but they will make your storage areas smell fantastic too! Common fragrance Combination Ideas When it comes to making homemade sachets there are a lot of different options. Here are some suggestions to get you started:
