Once again that time of year has come when we like to appreciate all of our members with a gift for the holidays. This year, we included with each winter order, a 1.5 ml vial of one of the following two Perfumes made from our essential oils, attars, and absolutes. We hope that you will enjoy these little aromatic treasures as much as we do!
- Holiday Magic Essential Perfume: Made from a combination of Eaglewood essential oil, Ruh Motia attar, and Khus Nirali attar.
- Holiday Spirit Natural Perfume: Made from a blend of Khus Shahi attar, Linden blossom absolute, and Honey Tangerine essential oil.
Holiday Cleaning Recipes
Recently a blog member wrote to me about a great shower cleansing blend, that works to neutralize the smell of mold as well as cleansing the shower from soap and detergent residue. This recipe will keep your shower sparking, and smelling like sunshine!
Mold Free Shower Spray
8 oz. vodka
8 oz. water
6 drops blue gum eucalyptus essential oil
16 drops may chang essential oil
Mix all ingredients together and place them in a spray bottle. Give a couple of sprays after every shower to elevate the aroma in your whole bathroom! You will love this one when you try it.
Inspired by the above recipe, I added these sister recipes. Use these in the kitchen and bathroom to bring a bright holiday sparkle and a heart-warming aroma into the bathroom.
Holiday Toilet Bowl Cleanser
8 oz. melissa hydrosol, pine hydrosol, or water
8 oz. water
4 ounces Vodka or Everclear
18 drops clove essential oil
10 drops peppermint essential oil
7 drops oregano essential oil
10 drops lemon essential oil
Combine all ingredients and shake or stir thoroughly. Place mix into a spray bottle. This will clean the bowl, and leave a lovely aroma to boot! I like this one so much that I use it way beyond the holiday season.
Lemon Pine Holiday Germ Exterminator
16 oz. water
4 ounces Vodka or Everclear
18 drops Terebenthine pine essential oil
10 drops black spruce essential oil
16 drops lemon essential oil
3 drops peppermint essential oil
Combine all ingredients and place in a spray bottle. Use this spray on countertops, faucets, sinks, and surfaces to eliminate germs and refresh the room.
Holiday Cookies Kitchen Spray
16 oz. water
4 ounces Brandy
8 drops allspice essential oil
8 drops ginger essential oil
4 drops cinnamon or cassia essential oil
6 drops clove essential oil
8 drops nutmeg essential oil
Combine all ingredients and place in a spray bottle. When you clean your countertops with a spray or two of this blend, your kitchen will carry the aroma of holiday cookies even if you are not a baker... and the kitchen will be clean--and safe!
Enjoy the Holidays, celebrate the Winter Solstice!
