Tips for a Fresh Smelling Home
By Monica Resinger
A fresh smelling home can help lift your spirits and help you feel
better even on rough days. Unfortunately, daily life can leave your home
smelling not so fresh. Fried foods and pets are just a couple of things out of many
that can spoil a fresh smelling home. Here are a few tips to help you rid unwanted
odors and get your home smelling fresh:
- If it's not too cold outside, open the front and back door of your
home to air out any stale air.
- Soak a cotton ball with essential or aroma oil, perfume or vanilla
and put it into your clean vacuum bag or canister. When you vacuum, it will
release the scent.
- Dab essential or aroma oil onto light bulbs; when they are turned on,
the heat of the bulb will release the aroma.
- If you have odors from cooking lingering, be sure to clean up the
cooking mess as soon as possible; this will help the odors to dissipate sooner.
- Candles nowadays can be richly scented. I like the ones in jars
because you can simply remove the lid to release the aroma of the candle rather
than burn it.
- Car air fresheners aren't only for cars... hang them from lamp
switches, kitchen cupboard knobs or other hangable places.
I hope these tips help you in getting your home smelling fresh. If
