| 1) Place cloves, cinnamon sticks, allspice or other favorite scented spice in a pot of water , simmer for 1-2 hours 2) Put a few slices of leftover orange or lemon rinds in a pot of water, simmer for 1-2 hours 3) Place baking soda in an open container of your choice. Good for closets, refrigerators and other small enclosed spaces 4) 2-3 slices of white bread absorbs refrigerator odors 5) Place lemon slices in an open bowl in the kitchen 6) Lemon and baking soda spray: Dissolve baking soda in 2 cups hot water, add lemon juice, pour into spray bottle, spray into air as air freshener 7) Place unscented kitty litter placed in bowls to absorb room odors
Vinegar in a cup or bowl rids rooms of odors 9) Charcoal placed in a bowl rids rooms of odors 10) Simply light a match for a few moments or burn a candle (scented or unscented). The flame from either will "eat-up" bad smelling gases in the air 11) Pour vanilla extract into a shallow dish and set in an out of the way place 12) Spin-Fresh Bathroom Deodorizer Add a couple of drops of your favorite essential oil to the inside of the cardboard toilet tissue roll. With each turn, fragrance is released into the room. _________________ Vicki

| I've also read that using a cotton ball, rub a few drops of essential/fragranced oil onto light bulbs. When the light is lit the heat releases the fragrance into the room. _________________ ~ By sowing frugality we reap liberty, a golden harvest. --Agesilaus ~ |
