Bringing Spring Indoors

After dreaming of spring for these long winter months, it is almost time to open our windows to breathe in the fresh air!  There is nothing like the fragrances of spring, and one of my favourite parts of the change in seasons is switching up my indoor scents to bring these vibrant aromas into my home with candles, essential oils, and wax warmers.  As a mom of 3, my house is never “really” clean but I like to make it smell like it is!  Essential oils get me in the mood to start my spring cleaning (and make my house smell clean when I haven’t got around to it yet!) and they lift my mood to match the beauty blooming outdoors!

Anna’s Flowers has a wonderful selection of essential oils to fit all your needs.  I AM relatively new to using essential oils, and I AM impressed with how much more I can do with them than just make my home smell great!  You can use them in homemade hand lotions, soaps, candles, bath bombs, sunscreens and so much more – great options if you have sensitivities or just want to know what goes into your personal care products.  I like to put a few drops on my dryer balls for a custom scent in my laundry.

You can also mix the different scents together to fit your mood. Here are some of my favourites mixes to bring spring inside. 

SPRING BLENDS:

Spring cleaning

• 3 drops of lime
• 3 drops of lemon 
• 2 drops of Rosemary
• 2 drops of lavender  

Spring Air

• 2 drops of Lavender 
• 2 drops of lemon
• 2 drops of peppermint

Rainbows and butterflies

So quickly vacuum your floor, throw your clutter in a closet and light a candle, because even if your house isn’t the cleanest you can make it smell like it is!  No matter if you’re looking to relax after a long day or just want to make your house smell warm and inviting, candles, wax warmers and essential oils are the way to make your home smell like something special.
