DIY Lemon + Witch Hazel Room Spray

I love the smell of lemons. I have several lemon candles, a diffuser with lemon essential oils and have made myself this oh so light lemon room spray and it’s divine!

To make a DIY lemon and witch hazel room spray, combine lemon essential oil, witch hazel, and water in a spray bottle, shake well, and then spritz to freshen your home. 

Here’s a more detailed recipe:

Ingredients:

• Distilled Water: 1/2 cup
• Witch Hazel: 1/4 cup
• Lemon Essential Oil: 20-25 drops
• Spray bottle 

Instructions:

1. Combine Ingredients: Pour the distilled water and witch hazel into a clean spray bottle. 

Add Essential Oil: Add the lemon essential oil to the bottle. 

Shake Well: Close the bottle and shake vigorously to combine all ingredients. 

Use: Spritz the room spray in desired areas to freshen the air. 

Tips and Considerations:

Essential Oil Alternatives: You can substitute lemon essential oil with other citrus essential oils like lime or orange for a different scent profile. 

Witch Hazel: Witch hazel helps to enhance the scent and can help the spray last longer. 

Storage: Store the spray bottle in a cool, dark place. 

Test in a Small Area: Before spraying the room spray liberally, test it in a small, inconspicuous area to ensure you like the scent and it doesn’t cause any unwanted reactions. 

Safety: Keep essential oils out of reach of children and pets. 

Natural Cleaning: This room spray is a natural alternative to commercial air fresheners, using natural ingredients to freshen your home.
