I love Febreeze, but I hate the price tag. I have been looking for a cheap way to make a fabric refresher at home. I have tried some with Baking Soda...don't know what I was thinking. The baking soda is supposed to dissolve in the water, but never does. It was a bear trying to shake all the baking soda up everytime I wanted to use the refresher. It wasn't even worth the time and effort. Not to mention, the baking soda will pool at the bottom and clog the sprayer. Disaster. So here's the recipe I found here. I tried it for the first time this a.m. and I have to say I am pleased. The fragrance I chose was Fresh Linen. I used 40 drops. The linen scent is very light... I am going to try another scent next time for sure. I sprayed this stuff only on my tattered rugs I have around the house to see how it works and if there are any bad side affects before I started using it like crazy like I do with the other fabric refreshers.
I loved the idea of adding vodka because it antimicrobial and I thought that would be perfect on the bathroom rugs and so on. There is absolutely no vodka smell once you spray it. The alcohol disperses. I will update the post once I know for sure it's okay.
