What You’ll Need
  

  • Canning jar any size (a 1 pint wide mouth mason jar)
  • Baking soda (fill the jar half full)
  • Essential oil of your choice 8-12 drops
  • Scrapbook paper
  • Spray paint to match (optional, for the ring)
  • Scissors
  • Pen
  • Nail or thick needle

Equipment

  • mason jars
  • scissors

Directions
 

  1. Spray paint the outer ring lid and let it dry.
  2. Trace the flat lid onto scrapbook paper and cut out the circle.
  3. Fill the jar half full of baking soda, then stir in 8-12 drops of essential oil.
  4. Fit the paper circle inside the ring, screw the ring onto the jar, and poke several holes through the paper with the nail.

Notes

Place around the home. Shake gently every few days to revive the scent and add more oil as needed. Essential oils: keep out of reach of children and pets (many oils, including some common ones, are hazardous to cats and dogs if ingested or concentrated); place where pets can’t knock it over.
