DIY Gel Air Freshener

Hoping to make your house smell wonderful but can't find the scents you want? I know right like really, there are so many candles and sprays out there. Well if you can't find one that fits you, you can always just make your own great smelling air freshener. So here is what you need to get started.

Ingredients:

  • Gelatin (4 packs, one box of knox gelatin works)
  • any essential oil fragrance (mix them up if you want 15 to 20 drops)
  • food coloring 
  • 2 tbs of salt (or more depending on concentration)
  • 2 cups of water (divided)
Instructions.

Heat a cup of boiling water on the stove top. Add your food coloring and stir until it boils. 

Once it boils take it off the heat and add in your salt and gelatin. Stir to combine (lumps will form in gelatin so make sure it melts)

After everything  dissolves add in your fragrance about 15 to 20 drops. stir.

Add the second cup of water, this should be cold, and the gelatin mixture is ready to be poured. (you may use less water in this step for a stronger concentration.)

Fill any container with the gelatin mixture and place it on the counter to solidify (up to 2 days) or in the refrigerator (up to 24 hours)

See how I did it with the video below.
