Fresh, clean, and eco-friendly.
There are numerous ways to create an environment that is chemical free while also providing cleanliness and freshness.
Eco-friendly ways
to infuse scents
in your space
• Consider herbs.
From sage to lavender, these herbs can provide a fragrant and appealing scent.
• Incorporate oils. Pure essential oils are the most powerful.
• Add greenery.
Plants and trees are not only attractive but can also help to improve the air quality and oxygen in a home.
• Purchase a diffuser. These popular items for the home can help to spread fragrance throughout your home for an extended period of time.
•Burn a soy candle. Candles that are natural help to provide a scent in a non toxic way.
Eco-friendly
cleaning tips
• Make your own cleanser. Create a natural cleaning solution such as one made from baking soda, lemon juice and borax.
• Clean windows and surfaces with lemon juice, vinegar and water.
• Use reusable or washable rags for cleaning as opposed to disposable paper towels.
