Essential oil air freshener is easy to make yourself with just a few simple ingredients! 
Author: Joy at Artful Homemaking

Ingredients

  • 1 cup distilled or filtered water
  • 1/4 cup vodka (or rubbing alcohol)
  • 12 drops wild orange essential oil
  • 8 drops peppermint essential oil
  • 1 glass spray bottle

Instructions

  • Add the vodka and essential oils to the spray bottle, using a funnel if necessary.
  • Swirl the essential oil mixture around a bit to combine the oil and the alcohol.
  • Add 1 cup water to spray bottle, put on the lid, and shake to mix.
  • Before each use, shake the bottle to mix the ingredients.Spray into the air to freshen the air.

Notes

Just a note, this air freshener is not going to be as strong as a synthetic, artificial air freshener will be.
My recipe calls for about 20 drops of essential oils, but you can try more if it doesn't seem strong enough. I've seen other recipes that used closer to 50 or 60 drops. It's all about how strong you want the scent to be.
Feel free to use any combination of essential oils you would like!
