  1. Thanks for sharing this 'recipe' - I have been using a similar concoction lately but I like the addition of lemon oil in yours.

  3. I will be trying this...I make my own during Winter with Vinegar and citrus peel, but I do love the smell of lavender. I often put out little dishes of lemon peel and lavender essential oil as a room freshener...thank you for stopping by my blog...I live at the base of the hills........Suzanne.
