Keeping your home smelling
nice is an essential part of living as a person. To stay in a redolent space
can give a calming and terrific feeling to our nerves. What we inhale affects
the whole of our being come what may. Air fresheners are not a good resort in
this setting as most of these products contain deleterious chemicals that are
detrimental to our health. Besides, the scent does not last long in the air in
some cases.
That is why @amrison blog is here to give you natural
remedies to enhance good smell in your home without any inimical effects in your
wellbeing. It is such good news that you might have these recipes in your home
already.
1. PROPER ENVIRONMENTAL HYGIENE AND STERILIZATION.
The first step to making your
home smell good is a strong environmental hygiene. It is important to make sure
every nook and cranny in your home is duly wiped constantly with surfaces aptly
sterilized to fend off odors, germs, irritations and impurities. Natural
sterilization liquid spray can be made by mixing 3 drops of either of tea
tree/lavender/peppermint oil, 1 cup of club soda and 1 cup of vinegar.
2. WATER, ESSENTIAL OILS AND FRUITS/PLANTS (ORANGE AND CINNAMON).
Put a dried orange peel in a pot and add cinnamon powder or sticks, put any essential oil of your choice and boil together in a clean open pot of water. Allow the smell to spread across the rooms directly from the pot. The emerging scent from this will indubitably blow your mind.
This is suitable for a stinky area. Fill a jar with a half
cup of baking soda and add a few drops of your desired essential oil. Get a
piece of paper and perforate it, this is to allow air pass through it. Place
the paper on the jar and place in a corner. The baking soda will absorb the stench
in the area, the oils scent will then smell across the room and fill the air.
4. LEMON JUICE, VINEGAR, CITRIC ACID AND BAKING SODA.
This is highly suitable for the bathrooms. Sieve and mix all
these ingredients together in moderate portions. Pour the thick mixtures into
small pans and allow it to solidify for at least 40 minutes. When it is they
are all dried, extract them all from the small pans and store in a cool
container. You can now use by putting it in your toilet bowl to dissolve the
gas in the pipeline, thus making it flow freely. The mixture can also be used
to remove stubborn stains from tiles, walls etc. The lemon juice in the
ingredients generates fragrance into the air after usage.
5. DIFFUSER.
Purchase a good diffuser at any good store and pour in your
desired essential oils. Put in on to allow the oils diffuse into your homes and
make ways into different areas to enable it smell super clean.
In case you are not sure of the flavors of essential oils to
go for, lavender, eucalyptus, rose and orange essential oil flavors are my
personal preferences which I am now pristinely addicted to. You can experiment
them if you are not allergic to either of the plants.
