DIY Shakers

I found these great glass shaker jars at a kitchen store while in Lancaster last weekend and knew immediately how I would use them!  These were easy to throw together and it'll be great to have them on hand.



CITRUS SCRUB

1/2 cup Baking Soda
8 drops Lemon YL Essential Oil
8 drops Orange YL Essential Oil

Add all ingredients to a small bowl.  Mix together well.  Using a funnel, transfer the mixture to a shaker jar and screw on the lid.  Pour into sinks, toilets and tubs to provide whitening power and a lovely aroma.

FABRIC REFRESHER

1/2 cup Baking Soda
8 drops Eucalyptus YL Essential Oil
8 drops Lavender YL Essential Oil
4 drops Tea Tree YL Essential Oil

Add all ingredients to a small bowl.  Mix together well.  Using a funnel, transfer the mixture to a shaker jar and screw on the lid.  Sprinkle onto mattresses, couches, carpets and rugs.  Let sit for ten to fifteen minutes and then vacuum it all up.

SHOE REFRESHER

1/2 cup Baking Soda
10 drops Purification YL Essential Oil
6 drops Peppermint YL Essential Oil

Add all ingredients to a small bowl.  Mix together well.  Using a funnel, transfer the mixture to a shaker jar and screw on the lid.  Sprinkle a tablespoon or so into closed toed shoes each evening for fresh smelling shoes in the morning.
