Making your own natural room spray is an easy and creative way to refresh your home without harsh chemicals. Unlike aerosol air fresheners, DIY room sprays use simple ingredients that provide a cleaner, more sustainable alternative.
This recipe combines distilled water, witch hazel and essential oils to create a beautifully scented mist. Witch hazel acts as a binding agent, helping the oil and water blend together while improving scent longevity.
Lavender essential oil is a popular choice thanks to its calming properties and sleep-supporting benefits, but you can customise this recipe using any essential oil or fragrance oil to suit your preference.
Always check IFRA and safety guidelines if you plan to sell your room spray.
