Cheap Ways to Make Your House Smell Good
Sometimes I forget that I already have a lot of the ingredients in my house to create fragrance, good smell and deodorizers for the home. To think about it, most of the essential oils use and are made from peppermint, rosemary, cinnamon, lemon, orange, etc.
All these ingredients can be found in our kitchens, gardens, or cupboards - at least mine.
While having a text conversation with my family today, I realized, since I am stuck at home anyways, I might as well try more recipes and see how they turn out. I've scouted through the internet and found some recipes with ingredients that I know I have.
Below are the six that I found with very simple ingredients that you might like to try yourself. I am starting today.
TIP: If you cook Pho, you would have most of these already.
