How to make a natural air freshener
Step 1: Add water to a pot
Grab a medium to large pot or saucepan. Add 3 cups of water.
Step 2: Add the apples
Next, I'll add the sliced apple. These fruits will release their delightful scents as they simmer.
Step 3: Add oranges
Place orange slices into the water.
Step 4: Spice it up
To give it that cozy fall aroma, I'll throw in the three cinnamon sticks and a handful of cloves. These spices are classic for fall scents.
Step 5: Add nutmeg and vanilla
Now, for an extra layer of warmth and sweetness, I'll sprinkle in 1 tablespoon of nutmeg and 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract.
Step 6: Boil and simmer
Place the pot of ingredients over a medium-high heat. Bring the pot to a boil.
Once the pot is bubbling nicely, I'll reduce the heat to low to let the fragrance begin to fill my home. Keep an eye on it and add more water if needed to prevent the pot from drying out.
