Creative Ways to Use Aroma Oils: Simple DIY Hacks
Aroma oils have been fondly used to fill our homes with pleasant fragrances for many decades. We widely use them to aromatize our spaces using the fragrance diffuser. But there are many ways to incorporate them into our lives rather than the traditional method. We can use aroma oils to infuse our belongings, create deluxe bath products, make customized scented candles, and much more. Let’s delve into some creative and simple DIY ideas to get the most out of your aroma oils.
Perfumed Linens
The sensation of crisp, clean, and perfumed linens is supreme. Whether folding laundry, setting up your wardrobe, or dozing off to sleep, the fragrance of aroma oil in your linens can elevate your experience during these routine tasks. Learn two amazing DIY techniques to perfume your textiles.
– Scented Sachets:
To make scented sachets, take a small pouch of breathable material like muslin or organza. Fill it with aromatic substances, like dried flowers and herbs, and an aroma oil-infused cotton ball. Hang these scented sachets in your wardrobe or place them in the corner of the closet. Try out our versatile ceramic disc to perfume your wardrobe and drawers.
– Linen spray:
Linen sprays work best for pillowcases and sheets. You can also use it on other clothing items. To make the linen spray, take a clean spray bottle and prepare a simple mixture of 10-15 drops of essential oil per cup of water. Spray your laundered linens lightly with your DIY linen spray.
– Pro Tip:
Lavender, eucalyptus, and citrus aroma oils work best for scenting linens. You can use our WHITE TEA with a complex scent profile to keep your linens smelling fresh and luxurious.
Luxurious Bath Products
There is nothing like the feeling of indulging in a rejuvenating bath scented with the aromas of essential oils. A luxurious pampering bath instantly relaxes your muscles and refreshes your mind.
– Bath Scrub:
Adding aroma oils to your bath scrub can add a delightful touch to your bathing experience. To make a bath scrub, take a cup of exfoliant of your choice (white or brown sugar or Epsom salt), half a cup of melted carrier oil (coconut or sweet almond), and 10-15 drops of your favorite aroma oil. Mix all the ingredients well to achieve spreading consistency. Store in a clean, airtight jar and use when required.
– Bath Salt:
Mix 10-15 drops of aroma oil with a cup of Epsom salt or sea salt to prepare the bath salt. Add a few drops of essential oil like lavender or peppermint for added benefits. Store it in a mason jar and add a handful to your bath water for a scrumptious soak.
– Pro Tip:
You can add a few drops of vitamin E oil to your bath scrub for skin nourishment. Try introducing dried flower petals to your bath soak for an added touch of luxury. Explore our wide range of aroma oils to find your top choice.
Scented Potpourri
Carefully curated potpourri is elegant in a bowl. It not only perfumes the room but also adds a touch of style and sophistication. It’s made with a blend of dried flowers, herbs, and spices and scented with fragrance oils.
– Potpourri Blend:
To curate a potpourri blend, take dried flowers and herbs or leaves of your choice (rose, lavender, rosemary, sage, etc.) and pair them with spices like clove or cinnamon. Add 10-20 drops of aroma oil to the dried blend and toss well. Store this mixture in a sealed container and let it cure for a few weeks to allow the blend to absorb the fragrance oil. After curing, display it in a chic decorative bowl.
– Pro Tip:
Potpourri is quite versatile. You can pair and contrast different ingredients to create different blends. You can use different aroma oils to create a unique combination. Try out our JASMINE and PATCHOULI aroma oil with a complex scent profile that complements the botanical ingredients in the blend.
From perfumed linens to scented potpourri, there are several creative ways to introduce aroma oils around the house and fill your life with the luxury of scent. Using these quick and easy DIY hacks, you can make your home smell incredible and add a touch of character and personalization to it.
