Do you want to make your home smell good? Everyone loves a house that smells good. It doesn’t matter if it is clean and fresh, warm, flowery, or fresh baked goods, all that matters is that it smells nice. Here are 7 ways to make your house great.
Put food scraps to use
A bad side effect of garbage disposals is that they can start to smell like, well, garbage. If you’re curious how to make your house smell good, just toss leftover orange or lemon peels down the drain. Do it once a month to keep things smelling fresh.
Coffee Scent Hack
Place vanilla scented tea lights in a bowl of coffee beans. The warmth of the candles will heat the coffee beans and make your house smell like french vanilla coffee.
Fresh Baked Cookies
If you want to make your house smell good because you have company coming to visit for a couple of hours, try cooking some cookies. No one can resist the smell.
Air Purifying Plants
Potted plants aren’t just for decoration; they’re also natural air purifiers. Some of the best are different kinds of palm trees, orchids, and peace lilies.
Oatmeal Hack!
Bringing in positive smells to our homes is super important but making sure we’re eliminating the bad is equally important. If your fridge smelling a little blah but you’re out of baking soda to try a bowl of uncooked oats to soak up the bad smells!
Eucalyptus in the Shower
Tie a eucalyptus bunch to your shower head and let that smell relax you and turn your bathroom into a spa-like oasis.
Try a stove top fragrance
You don’t need an expensive fragrance to make your house smell nice. Add several lemon and orange peels to a cup or two of water, then let it simmer for a few hours, adding water as needed. You’ll freshen the air and the pot in one step. You could also try this trick with a handful of cloves, keeping it simmering for half an hour.
