Lavender linen spray is a great alternative to artificial room freshener. And, it’s simple to make!
Lavender essential oil has been a staple in our home ever since the birth of my first baby almost 17 years ago. My midwife was the one who first introduced me to herbs and essential oils, and I’m so glad she did!
This lavender linen spray is so simple to make with just a few readily-available ingredients. You can use either vodka or witch hazel in this recipe. I used witch hazel this time.
Lavender Linen Spray
Ingredients:
- 1/4 cup vodka or witch hazel
- 35-40 drops lavender essential oil
- 3/4 cup distilled water
- glass spray bottle
Directions:
- Combine alcohol or witch hazel and lavender essential oil in a jar or glass spray bottle. Put the lid on and shake to combine thoroughly.
- Open glass bottle and add the water. Shake again to combine all the ingredients.
- Spray on linens, towels, robes, ironing, etc. It can even be used on the skin!
As I mentioned above, lavender linen spray has a variety of uses.
I like to spray some on my pillowcase before bed, since lavender promotes relaxation. You can also spray it on towels, clothing that is being ironed, or even your skin!
Does the bottle have to be glass? Is plastic ok?
Plastic would work just as well!
Just found your website, so I look forward to checking it out! Quick question, and sorry if this is odd, but does the spray bottle have to be glass or can it be plastic?
Glad you stopped by, Jennifer! Plastic is totally fine. 🙂
I'm always looking for new recipes for making my own household products! This is a good one to add to my list!
Looks lovely. I love the smell of lavender!
It's one of my favorite scents! Thanks for stopping by! 🙂
How lovely, this must make everything smell wonderful! I will have to try this!
I just love spraying it all over! It's not a strong lavender scent, so it's pretty faint (I used 35 drops of essential oil), but I like it that way.
