Do you like to make your home to smell good?
Of course you want your home to smell good, don’t we all? Have you ever visited a friend or a family member and their home smells simply wonderful?
Then you get home to your own space and you take a whiff… It doesn’t smell bad, and well, it doesn’t smell like anything. Some of us like to have a home that smells nice and possibly floral, and others just want their home to smell fresh and clean.
We have compiled a few tips from different resources on how to make your home smell better!

Make your own room freshening spritz.
Store bought room fresheners are often too strong smelling or are filled with chemicals that we don’t really want to be breathing in our homes.

Here’s a fun recipe to try from an Uncomplicated Life Blog!
