Do you love that fabulous smell of the expensive reed diffusers? I love it when I walk in my house and it smells great. The thing I don't love is the price of all things that smell good. I decided that I have to figure out how to make these diffusers. What I found out is that I can make them at a fraction of the cost of the store bought diffusers. I do suggest that you find an essential oil or a fragrance oil that you love. You can even take it as far as mixing a few different oils to a scent that you love (lavender and vanilla).
Recipe:
Recycle a small glass bottle or buy one at the dollar store (no need for a lid). The bottle needs to have a narrow neck so that it doesn't evaporate too fast.
Safflower oil
Essential oil or fragrance oil
Bamboo Skewers with tip cut off
Combine a quarter of a cup of safflower oil with 1/2 to 1 oz. of fragrance oil. If you're using essential oils use 20 -25 drops. Pour into your glass jar and add bamboo sticks. After about an hour flip bamboo stick to promote saturation.
I suggest that you flip your reeds once a week. It keeps the scent fresh. Have fun and enjoy!
