Homemade Febreze

Hi Everyone,
Just a quick post today.  Thought I'd share something I found on Pinterest!  Over the last year or two I have been trying to make homemade cleaners and toiletries for my home.  I started with laundry detergent and I think I've found the perfect recipe for me (I will be sharing that recipe in the near future, but I need to do a bit more testing on it first).  Then, I started making my own dryer sheets, all purpose cleaner, window cleaner, and the list has expanded from there.  I recently found a recipe on Pinterest for homemade Febreze!  I love Febreze, and so I gave this recipe a try.  Here is the link to the recipe:

I made mine using Gain Sunflower and Sunshine with Febreze Freshness (ironic, I know) fabric softener
You could use whatever fabric softener you have on hand, this was on sale last week, so it's what I had.

I also used an old cleaner bottle to put mine in.  I actually was so excited to make this that I took a cleaner that I never used anymore (because I make my own), and emptied out the cleaner and rinsed it REALLY well so that I could use the bottle!

Also, I did not have a funnel, so I just used a measuring cup.  I measured my fabric softener in the measuring cup and poured it into the bottle. Then I measured my baking soda and put it into my measuring cup.  Instead of using a funnel to pour the baking soda into the bottle, I added water to the baking soda in the measuring cup and stirred it just a bit, then poured it into the bottle.  I continued to fill my measuring cup with water and poured that water into my bottle.  This was so easy to make and I'm loving the savings!!!

Hope you all enjoy!
