This year the festive season has been all about getting creative with some DIY Projects at home. I’ve been adding a touch of holiday decor to each room to get into the spirit of the season. I often start by setting the mood with some essential oils, it is a quick way to fill the room with a welcoming aroma and delight the senses. You can mix essential oils together in a diffuser or burner to make your own blend or get a festive scented pack.
I have been imbuing my home with the scents of my Oil Garden Aromatherapy Festive Joy Oil Trio Pack in just about everything. Soaps, candles, sprays, massage oils , the list goes on…

I’ve recently started to use a natural disinfectant with clove in it – it smells so good and works really well! Think I’ll have to get some orange oil for winter.
Thanks for the tip! I’ll have to try the clove natural disinfectant.
