Learn how to make a homemade DIY essential oil linen spray with only a few ingredients. This DIY is quick and easy so you can have a non-toxic linen spray ready in a few minutes.
I like my home to feel warm, inviting and cozy. A big part of that is having a yummy and clean smelling home. Most linen and fabric sprays, candles, and wall plugins on the market are filled with toxic chemicals. I don’t want to bring into my home because of how they can negatively impact our health. Fragrance is a blanket statement for chemicals that don’t need to be listed because they are considered ‘trade secret’. We are constantly bombarded by carcinogens and endocrine disruptors. There is a lot that is out of my control, so I am very specific with what I will allow into my home. I’m all for doing what we can do reduce our toxic load, because the small changes add up.
How To Use DIY Essential Oil Linen Spray
I use this linen spray on bedding, in our linen closet, and on my living room furniture to freshen things up a bit. I love to use this linen spray as a part of my evening routine because it helps to create a cozy atmosphere. There is nothing better than starting the week with fresh sheets on the bed, calming oils in the diffuser (Cedarwood and Lavender are my go-to’s), the salt lamp on, and this linen spray misted on our duvet. It is so heavenly and the perfect way to start the week off on the right foot.
What Essential Oils Can You Use for DIY Essential Oil Linen Spray?
For this DIY Essential Oil Linen Spray you can use almost any essential oil you want. I recommend not using any oils that are typically very sticky or dark in color, like Vetiver or Myrrh, because they could stain fabric. I love Bergamot and Lavender together. Cedarwood and Lavender, Wild Orange and Lavender, Lavender and Eucalyptus, Ylang Ylang and Wild Orange are all great combinations as well. Get creative with it and use whichever oils are your favorite. I love this brand of essential oils.
