Over the last two years I have been diving into the world of essential oils. It was around the time I had given birth to our second daughter, and I wanted to reduce my use of cleaners with heavy fumes or toxins.
I’d spent a lot of time on Pinterest searching for DIY cleaning recipes and today I thought i’d take a moment to share two ways I’ve used essential oils on my carpets.
Both ways are simple, budget friendly and have been tested by me.
This first only requires a cotton ball, and a few drops of your favorite essential oils.
Supplies:
- Cotton Ball
- Essential Oils
- I’ve used both lavender and orange
Instructions:
- Put the EO’s on a cotton ball
- Vacuum the cotton ball
- Vacuum as per usual
Supplies:
- Baking Soda
- Essential Oils
- Empty Parmesan Cheese container
- Fill empty container with baking soda
- drop 8-10 drops of essential oils
- give it a good shake to combine
- sprinkle the mixture all over the carpets and let sit for a few minutes
- vacuum as per usual
