Instructions
1. Dissolve the Baking Soda
Start by pouring the hot water into a bowl or measuring cup. Stir in the baking soda until fully dissolved—this helps neutralize odors, not just cover them up.
2. Add the Scents
Mix in your lemon essential oil or lemon juice. For a more complex scent, you can add lavender for a calming vibe or eucalyptus for a fresh, crisp feel.
3. Transfer to a Spray Bottle
Carefully pour the mixture into your spray bottle. Give it a gentle shake before each use.
4. Spritz and Enjoy!
Spray lightly around your room—on curtains, cushions, rugs, even into the air. You’ll notice an instant transformation from stale to serene.
