Item Description
Keep your car smelling fresh and inviting with this simple DIY car air freshener.
Here’s what you need and expanded details on how to make it:
Materials:
- Wool felt balls
- Quilting thread
- Large sewing needle
- 1/4 inch ribbon
- Fall Essential oils of your choice (Example: Vanilla, Wild Orange, Clove, Cinnamon, Harvest Spice, Vanilla Chai…)
Instructions:
1. Prepare Your Thread: Thread your needle and tie a knot at the end of the thread.
2. Assemble the Freshener: Start threading the felt balls onto the thread one by one. For a fuller look, you can add more balls.
3. Create the Shape: Once you’re happy with the size and shape of your string of felt balls, sew the ends together to form a loop and secure it by tying a knot.
4. Add the Oils: Apply 2-3 drops of your favorite essential oil to each felt ball. Reapply when needed.
5. Add a Hanging Ribbon: Cut a piece of 1/4 inch ribbon about 10-12 inches long, and tie it to your felt ball loop. This allows you to hang your air freshener from your rear-view mirror.
As the essential oils evaporate, they will gently scent your car, making your drives more enjoyable.
