More Ideas

I thought of a couple more ideas for you with the essential oils. I'll quickly tell you because I hear a screaming baby and little toddler feet padding around upstairs and I know my free moment has reached a conclusion.

I had been buying these packages of little bags full of dried lavender at Trader Joe's that you put in the dryer to make your clothes smell nice. Problem was, they were expensive, and when Toddler got a hold of them they were quite messy. So I got an old rag and put about 20 drops of each - Lavender, Rosemary, Tea Tree and Peppermint (or more or less to your tastes) and threw that in the dryer with the clothes. Works great! The peppermint especially adds a nice fragrance.

Liquid castile soap with lavender and tea trea drops also make a nice fragrance in a pump in the bathroom. Or a bit of castile soap with a couple drops of lavender and tea tree in about a cup of water over squares of white flannel make a great substitution for wipes. (I may have said that one before.) (Sorry.)

Back to Life.
