Why are we talking about a natural way to freshen up your fabrics, you might ask. Not only does this hack save energy, but it also saves you time!
“A fabric refresher spray is a small obtainable hack, helping to reduce washes and minimize the release of microfibres into the ocean. ”
Ingredients:
Essential oils
Distilled water
High-proof vodka
Step 1:
Harness the Power of Vodka Begin by pouring high-proof vodka into a 500-milliliter spray bottle. Vodka acts as a natural odor neutralizer and evaporates quickly, leaving fabrics smelling fresh without any residue.
Step 2:
Infuse with Your Favorite Scents Add a few drops of your preferred essential oils to the vodka. Whether you prefer the soothing scent of lavender or the invigorating aroma of lemon, essential oils allow you to customize your fabric refresher spray. Check your pantry or ask a friend for any essential oils you may need – you only need a few drops!
Step 3:
Dilute with Distilled Water To ensure the spray is gentle on fabrics, dilute the vodka with distilled water. This not only helps prevent mineral deposits but also inhibits bacterial growth, ensuring your fabric refresher spray remains effective. Collecting steam from a boiling pot of water is the easiest way to create distilled water – simply cover the pot with a lid and collect the steam.
Step 4:
Shake and Spray Give the bottle a good shake to thoroughly mix the ingredients, then spray liberally on fabrics such as clothing, upholstery, curtains, and carpets. Be sure to test on a small area before using on delicate fabrics like silk or leather.
