Layer the Ingredients:
Start by adding a couple of fresh rosemary sprigs to the bottom of your mason jar. Follow with a few slices of lemon and lime to give a refreshing, citrusy aroma. Then, drop in 10-15 drops of citronella or lavender essential oil. Both oils are natural insect repellents, with citronella being especially effective for keeping mosquitoes at bay.
Fill with Water:
Fill the jar with water, making sure the ingredients are submerged. Leave just enough space at the top to place a floating candle.
Add the Candle:
Place the floating candle gently on top of the water. Light it up, and watch as it creates a beautiful, flickering glow that adds to the ambiance while keeping mosquitoes away!
