Here’s a simple 2-ingredient trick to keep your home smelling fresh naturally:
Baking Soda & Essential Oil Air Freshener
Ingredients
- Baking soda – absorbs odors
- Essential oil – any scent you like (lavender, lemon, eucalyptus, etc.)
Instructions
- Mix ingredients
- Place 2–3 tablespoons of baking soda in a small bowl or jar.
- Add 8–10 drops of your favorite essential oil.
- Place around your home
- Put the mixture in areas where odors form (kitchen, bathroom, near trash bins).
- Baking soda neutralizes odors while the essential oil adds a pleasant fragrance.
- Refresh as needed
- Stir every few days or add a few more drops of oil to maintain the scent.
Optional Tips
- Use a jar with holes in the lid for a neat look.
- Swap essential oils based on season or mood.
- Can be placed near closets, shoes, or laundry areas too.
This is cheap, natural, and long-lasting, keeping your home smelling fresh without chemicals.
I can also give a version that works as a spray or fabric freshener if you want a more versatile option.
