Frugal Air Freshener - Wednesday 1st April 2015

Why spend $5 - $8 to buy a plug-in air freshener when you can make one at home for just a few cents? To keep the air in your home fragrant this autumn, cut a length of panty hose, put your favorite spice blend inside (or buy a $2 packet of pot pourri from the dollar shop), tie both ends and place it just inside a heating vent. The hot air will spread the scent throughout your home. When it gets stale, just add some more spices, or a few drops of a scented essential oil to the pot pourri. Or add some spices to the vacuum cleaner bag. This is a great way to use up kitchen spices that are older than six months and are too stale to use in cooking.
