Want a nice smell?

Have you noticed how many different brands and types of air fresheners are on the market now? It amazes me, but obviously people are interested or those companies would have stopped producing the stuff by now.

When you consider the energy and chemicals used in producing these products, plus making the bottles or whatever to hold them, they are expensive items.

And to my mind, they are completely unnecessary.

You want fresh air? Open a window or door!

You want a sweet smell? Bring in some flowers from the garden or cook some biscuits or a cake. Try growing plants with beautiful scents near doors and windows so tehy naturally enhance your living areas.

Alternatively, use an essential oil to make the house smell nice - one way is to use a nice oil with some water when you dust.

And if you choose cleaning products carefully, you are less likely to find your house full of chemical smells to get rid of, too.

    Some oil in the water when you wash the floor is lovely, too. I love lemon or lemongrass for that clean smell.
