In the past, one thing a homemaker did was use linen spray to freshen the bed sheets between washes. It was quite simple to spritz them when the bed was made each morning. The reward was a lovely fresh scent of lavender or other calming, relaxing herbals rising softly when the covers were pulled back at night.
This has become a rare practice today. And it is one that adds that special something to your home--it makes home a special place, a comforting place, a place of refuge. It associates home with pleasant smells and will bring home to mind every time that smell is encountered the rest of your life.
Linen sprays are very simple to make and there are numerous recipes online.
You can use any herbal scent you prefer...for bed linens a calming herb is best. However, you can also spritz the towels in the linen closet and your undergarments in the dresser drawers. If you make your own soaps, lotions, bath salts and scrubs, you might prefer to use the same scent for your undergarments...and when you make your own linen sprays, you can do that. Linen spray can also double as a body spray; again, you might like to layer the scent by using it in all your personal body products.
I offer these for sale as part of our bath/body line of products. As you can see, you only need some sort of spray bottle to hold your spray and these can be found in most discount stores very inexpensively.
This only takes a few minutes to prepare and minute to use each day...consider adding your own special scent to your bed linens and make your house a special place for your family.
