Gather Your Ingredients: Start by collecting your dried herbs and flowers. Lavender is a popular choice because of its calming fragrance, but you can mix and match to suit your preference.
Add Activated Charcoal: Place a small amount of activated charcoal inside the bag. Charcoal is a powerful moisture absorber and will help keep the air dry.
Mix Herbs and Flowers: Add your dried herbs and flowers to the bag. These will not only help freshen the air but also provide a subtle, natural fragrance.
Optional – Add Essential Oils: For an extra boost of fragrance, add a few drops of your favorite essential oil to the mix. Lavender or eucalyptus oils work particularly well.
Place in Strategic Locations: Hang the bag in rooms that tend to get damp or have unpleasant odors. Common areas to place it include the bathroom, kitchen, or closet.
Benefits:
Air Freshening: The natural scents from the herbs and flowers will leave your home smelling fresh and clean without the use of harmful chemicals.
