Freshen up around the House

danAround the HouseNo Comments

Are there ways to use Scent It Scents around the house when I don’t want to use a candle or simmer pot?
Freshen your home with scents when you can’t use simmer pots, or candles:

Musty places in homes, cottages, campers, office, closets, etc. can be brightened up with our scents. Place a drop of scent on your fingertip, rub thoroughly where it won’t be seen and where you don’t mind a discoloration or stain. Inside closets, under shelves, bottoms of furniture etc. You can also place a few drops on a cotton ball, place on a piece of aluminum foil and tuck into an inconspicuous place - refresh every few days. You can also make a Spritz by adding as much scent to your liking to a spritzer bottle with distilled water. Spritz to freshen up the room, this will save on costly aerosol room deodorizers.

Yes. Here is a recipe for using Scent It fragrance oils in your Lampe Berger: 16 FL OZ. ISOPROPYL ALCOHOL 91% VOL. (473 ml) (Do not use “ethyl” or any other type of alcohol.) .3 OZ. OF  FRAGRANCE OIL (8.86 ml) (Add more oil if you want a stronger scent. Try adjusting by increasing fragrance oil at .1 oz. increments. Be careful not to use too much Fragrance Oil as it may smoke and clog the wick.

Can I use Scent It Fragrance Oils with my Potpourri?

buddysmomAround the HouseNo Comments

Potpourri will naturally lose its scent over time. Try this:

1) Use about 5 drops of oil for a hand full of Potpourri. Using an eye-dropper RESERVED ONLY FOR USE WITH SCENTING OILS is the best way to distribute the oil. If you don’t have a dropper, pour a little oil into the cap of its bottle and gently shake the oil onto the potpourri.

2) If you keep your potpourri in a bowl or a basket, and you don’t mind that some oil may get on the vessel itself, keep it in that container to refresh it. Otherwise, place your potpourri in a roomy plastic bag.

3) Sprinkle or evenly drop the desired amount of oil onto the potpourri and toss it with your hands. Pretend you’re tossing a salad with your hands. Very gently moisten every flower and herb as you disperse the oil. WASH YOUR HANDS WELL AFTER EACH USE. You may wish to use rubber gloves when using the oils, since some of our oils are spicy and may irritate sensitive skin.

4) If you’re leaving the potpourri open in a ceramic bowl or basket, you can replace the blend back into its container right away. If you use the potpourri in a cloth bag or sachet or in a light-colored basket, wait a couple of days to return it to the sachet, since the oils may discolor or stain the fabric.
