Today I’ve decided to make some natural room spray. This can save on some serious cash, while saving your home environment and lungs from chemicals, toxins, and a whole lifetime of respiratory problems. Try making your very own with 100% essential oils. They don’t just smell amazing, they also have therapeutic benefits. I have been mixing essential oils with nothing more than water for years to freshen our home. I always took my favorite scents and blending them without thinking about their benefits. Now, I am reading up on the many different benefits and uses. I made a room spray to keep the cold and flu away.
Here are some essential oils that work wonders for just that:
Peppermint:
Eucalyptus:
Lemon:
Lavender:
Tea Tree:
Thyme:
Oregano:
Most of these oils are antiseptic, antibacterial, detoxifying, disinfectant, germicide, fungicide, purifying, cleansing, deodorizing….
I did have some of these oils so here’s what I’ve mixed.
20 drops of Lemon Eucalyptus
20 drops of Peppermint
10 drops of Lavender
10 drops of tea tree
This was added to a 4 oz blue glass spray bottle with spring water and shaken well. Please note that a dark glass bottle is much better than clear glass or plastic ones, the darkened glass will extend the life of your spray.

We like to make our own air fresheners using essential oils! You get a great, clean, fresh & natural smell with health benefits!
Totally agree. Thanks a million.
Thank you for sharing your mixture! I’ll have to try it!
I do the same, make my own household products- not only do they save a ton of money, they’re SO much safer to use!! Thanks for posting this, I’ve never made room spray before, and I have a lot of essential oils, can’t wait to try it! Feel free to check out my blog anytime, I write about living an organic lifestyle on a budget. Looking forward to reading more of your posts.
