I like the house to smell nice but I don't like buying the sprays because they cost so darned much. I came up with a way to make some air freshener for the house that smells so much better than most and not only makes a lot, but the scent lasts a lot longer too.
All you need is 2 items to make it. Gain Fireworks in-wash scent booster and a glass spray bottle.
You can find the Gain Fireworks in the laundry aisle of about any store.
Place 1 tablespoon of the Gain beads into your spray bottle.
Now, using a funnel, pour the crystals/beads into the spray bottle.
Now add really warm water and fill up the bottle but leave about a 1/2" head space. Now put the spray nozzle on and shake well. It is now ready to use.
I shake it before each use and just go around my house spraying it. It is nice smelling and long lasting. The Gain scent booster costs between $4-$6 a container and it will last about 6 months. I use this spray twice a day to freshen each of my rooms and it lasts and lasts. For the price value alone, it is definitely worth making.
