Lavender Linen Water

A great way to keep your rooms and linens fresh is linen water. The French used it to spray just before laying the duvet cover over bed sheets.
LAVENDER LINEN WATER
Ingredients
1 tsp lavender essential oil
2 oz denatured alcohol
10 oz distilled water
12 oz bottle with lid
Instructions:
Pour essential oil and alcohol into bottle, close lid, and shake to mix; add distilled water. Mixture will become cloudy and eventually separate. Shake well before each use.
