When you want your home to smell fresh, clean and inviting – but you just don’t have time to do a full spring clean – linen spray is the answer. You can spritz the sweet-scented spray on almost anything to give it a fresh lease on life – soft furnishings, bed linen, clothing, rugs – and your home will feel cleaner immediately.
Even better news? Linen water is incredibly easy to make at home – just follow the instructions below.
Ingredients
-
30 drops essential oil (we love lemon, lavender or rose hip. You can also use a blend of two oils)
-
1.5 cups distilled water
-
90mL vodka
Method
-
Mix water and vodka in a jar, add lid and shake to combine.
-
Add oil and shake again until all ingredients are combined.
-
Using a funnel, pour into a spray bottle. You’re done!
USE ON
-
Spray on a freshly made bed for the perfect finishing touch
-
Spray on towels, allow to dry and store away
-
Refresh musty wardrobe or linen cupboard with a couple of sprays
-
Spritz the sofa and throw cushions for an instant refresh
-
Use as an air freshener
-
Spray after cooking to get rid of lingering food odours
NOTE
For delicate or light fabrics, patch-test a small area before spraying the linen water to make sure it doesn’t mark. A light spritz is all that is needed – be sure not to saturate the fabric.
