Essential oils are a great way to bring spring vibes into your home. It’s not quite warm enough to leave all the windows and doors open to let the fresh air in, but it’s definitely time to pack away those heavy coats and dust off the grill. You can use essential oils in a variety of ways to make the transition an inviting one. Here are some tips for bringing the fresh, bright aromas of spring into your daily life with essential oils.
Make a Citrusy Spring Room Spray
During the winter, the air in your home can start to feel stagnant because everything is closed up. If you love essential oils, you’ve probably diffused essential oils to bring more wintry aromas inside, such as cinnamon bark or Siberian fir. Now, it’s time to switch to something light and fresh, perhaps with a hint of sweetness or tartness. Try making your own room spray for a change of pace. Equal parts lemon oil, grapefruit oil, and lime oil with distilled water can bring a new, fresh aroma to any room.
Repel Insects with Lemongrass
Lovely days are heading our way, and the bugs will arrive soon after. Diffusing lemongrass essential oil in your outdoor setting can help keep bugs away. Closely related to the well-known insect repellent, citronella, lemongrass essential oil also works as a natural repellent for bugs. This summer, you’ll definitely want to try diffusing lemongrass essential oil inside or outside on your porch or patio. If you’re worried about bugs landing on you, try rubbing or spritzing diluted lemongrass essential oil on your skin before going outside.
Freshen Up Your Carpets
While you’re in DIY mode, why not make an easy carpet cleaner? Carpets make your rooms cozy and comfy, but they can be a challenge to keep clean. The key is to let the carpet concoction sit on the surface for one to two hours before vacuuming it up. With a baking soda base, you’ll add several drops of clean-scented essential oil or your favorite blend. Possible options include eucalyptus oil, lemon, lime, Siberian fir, tea tree, cilantro, and citronella. Many pure essential oils can be used for many different things, so be sure to read up on them to find your favorite scent.
Prepare Dreamy Smoothies
Pretend the sun is shining and you’re lying on a tropical beach with a delicious smoothie. Maybe your yummy beach smoothie has fresh mango, papaya, pineapple, coconut milk, a handful of ice cubes, and one drop of wild orange essential oil. If you’re more into a spring detox juice, you can juice or blend kale leaves, celery stalks, lime, cucumber, apple, and a drop of cilantro oil or celery seed oil together. The recipe possibilities for fresh smoothies and juices are endless, but the fresh flavors are sure to help you get in the mood for springtime.
