Diffuser Recipes
Notes:
These are approximate drops. Adjust these recipes to your needs. If the recipe is too strong for you, add fewer drops. Do you need more? Just add more, but no more than 8-12 drops for all of our diffusers with the exception of the Aria diffuser which requires 15-25 drops.
Tip: When you first begin diffusing, start with less and then build to more if desired.

Wooly Ball Laundry Boost
Wooly balls are a great way to cut down the drying time and the amount of heat you will need to dry your clothes. For my dryer, I use 3 balls, but see what works best for you. I will use 3-4 drops of essential oil per ball. I usually get 4-5 loads out of each set of three essential oil-scented balls.
Add Citrus Fresh to your wooly-balls when drying your laundry. Citrus Fresh and Joy make a lovely combo. Would you like some more combinations? The combinations below are beautiful, refreshing scents for your laundry. You will never miss using those nasty, toxic dryer sheets. There have been many studies done on how harmful traditional laundry soap and dryer sheets are to you and your environment. You will want to take a look at different articles related to this.
Trust me though, you will love playing around with these essential oil combinations to create a unique, healthy scent for your laundry.

Directions
- Pour carrier oil and vodka into the glass jar. You will want 1-2 inches in the bottom, so
adjust your sweet almond oil and vodka to fit the jar that you have chosen. - Add 15-20 drops, again adjusting to your bottle size; more drops will create
