My 22 year old son who has grown up with a crazy ‘all natural’ mama called me the other day and asked if I could make him an essential oil spray to use on wool dryer balls. I tried not to act too surprised or crazy. 😂 Thank you for this recipe! I can’t wait to try it. I’m going to use cedar wood, orange and a blue spruce eo. 😊
That sound like a great combo!!!! I might go add some orange to the one I already made to spice it up a little. I love that your son asked you about that. My kids do the same and it does surprise me since sometimes I figured they don’t notice 😂
I'm a Texan, born and bred. My husband is from Pennsylvania. When we visit his family i sound like I'm from rural Alabama. Even I am astounded at how I sound. The longer we are there the worse it gets. 😮
Im from Florida, but my husband is Texan. I have now lived her in Texas for 14 yrs. Sometimes I catch myself sounding like I am from here. It funny because internally I say did I just sound like that???
I'm from Southern California but moved to Georgia 35 years ago. Although as a general rule I have a "generic" accent, I often find myself picking up accents from people I interact and converse with. Also, over time I have picked up a few colloquialisms in my speech patterns such as "y'all" and "gunna". Many thanks for the laundry and scent tips! You now have a new subscriber!
Someone once asked me if I was from California. They said they could tell since I was loud and obnoxious 😂 his mom was also from California so I guess it was a term of Endearment
Thank you so much for doing this. ❤. I've wanted to add essential oils to my wash for a while now. I have one thought to share. Scents have different notes: Top, middle, and base. Look up scents when you are making combinations. The base scents will help the other scents last longer or could over power your other scents. The top note is the one that disappears the quickest. 😊
I have a scent sensitive condition. I was diagnosed by an allergist. So I’m aware of what scents trigger me with migraine and dizziness.Imitation coconut is my worst for me. Yes those Downey beads also don’t help. I work with a lot of women and they wear so many scents going on I have a long day when I have to work especially with the one who wears vanilla cream biscotti cookie scent 🤢. Were suppose to a fragrance free environment they still wear it. I can’t go into bath and body store or lush bath bombs . I’m glad I come across your channel.Thanks
My hubby is the same way. I use to manage one of those highly fregranced stores like you mentions and my clothes, purse, everything smelled all the time. My car seats smelled so bad my hubby couldn’t stand it. So glad I’m out of that environment now. I had no idea how bad it was at the time.
@@LittleHillHomesteadGa yes I was asked by sister to reupholster her lil bench with new material and it smelled so bad from the scented candles she used all the time. When I go to her house she not allowed to burn candles and I have to use dish soap to wash my hands after using the washroom. She is crazy addicted to bath and body crap. Also she not allowed to wear perfume and I drive when we go on a road trip. Sometimes it can be a chore to go out men’s cologne gags me.
@@LollyB1963 I’ve noticed that the women who are adverse to scents often don’t wear makeup or fix themselves up a whole lot. Which is really cool. To each his own. A lot of them were older as well. I figured when perfumes were heavy in times past, white diamonds, Coco, Opium, l’air du Temps. Versace, it was then that many women who did not wear fragrances in the first place, developed mysterious “allergies” to fragrance. And here in 2024 are still having the same chocking sensation as when everybody ran around smelling like Charlie. Have you ever found a light, fresh fragrance that suits you, perhaps it would desensitize you or provide some kind of protection against others scents.
While I love this idea, be warned. I used this and it left subtle oil stains on my clothes, most noticeable on tshirts. I believe it is because these new washing machines use very little water and the clothes don’t get tossed around like the machines of old with full drums of water being agitated by a swirling agitator which pulls the clothes down and around. Those dryer balls with oils did the same for me. If I could use this I definitely would as I love EOs and use them every chance I get. If a had an older washer, I would use it again though. Thank you!
Hi! Love you, your recipes and channel! Keep being your authentic you! I just made my second batch of this laundry booster and I LOVE it! Cardamom is my favorite essential oil! So glad someone else loves it, too! I came across a bunch of Autumn EO blends and will be trying those next, but I have a feeling this EO blend of yours will be my go-to. Thank you for your generosity with your ideas and recipes! I do a lot of crafts and DIY recipes like you do, but do not have the guts to put in on video for all the world to see. You rock! Keep it up!
I was born and raised in Brazil and learned english by myself, but my fianceé is from South Alabama and let me tell you the accent fever is soooo real! I was sayin "y'all" on the second week in! lol
lol - I was raised primarily in the South, so...a mish mash of Southern and other accents. I love it. But when we visit South Louisiana where my husband is from, after 3 days I'm picking it up. I know that if I stayed for 2 weeks, I'd sound just like 'em. But mais, a Cajun accent is a beautiful one!
Anyone worried about oil stains just take a piece of cheese cloth and put some herbs in it. For example, a sprig of lavender or Bayleaf even some cardamom seeds…
@@LittleHillHomesteadGa hahaha! So funny. We knew what you meant though, just couldn't help myself, had to say something. Funniest part...you said it with such conviction and seriousness. LOL. Peace...have an awesome day. So, if i do this...which I probably will because I'm like that with things I use here...I'll probably go about 50 drops. Alot can get washed away...just want a light scent like you said.
Another use…I sometimes sprinkle a little bit of the store brand laundry scent booster onto my kitchen floor and vacuum it up first and then the rest of my home. The scent gets through my home and smells great for a while. Thank you for your awesome videos!!!! 🥰😇
I absolutely love your channel. My daughter has very sensitive skin and lots of allergies. And I have been looking for simple recipes to make stuff for her. I am so glad I found you.
I put coconut oil in my scent lamp and add a few drops each of lavender oil and lemon oil. I love that combo. I also put it in the water of my rainbow vac. Now I’ll be putting it in my “new” clothes scent. Thank you!
I am making a note to myself to split this out to maybe 4 different scents. Just to see what I like. I anticipate wanting a different scent for sheets and towels and a different scent for clothes. Hmmmm… love how you provide some basic recipes/ideas/thought-starters that I can play with and make my own. And you make me laugh while you’re doing it. :-)
Love the recipe. As husband approaches retirement I’m looking to see where I can same a little money. I use the scent beads primarily in my sleepwear and sheets. Love my lavender. As a homesteader, have you thought about trading out that beautiful electric stove for gas? I’m sure in S. California you don’t think about power outages much but in an event, you could still cook whereas your electric stove will be useless. Just a thought from one homesteader to another. Be safe, Be prepared, Be Blessed
Thanks for the recipe! Love the idea of no chemicals. Also, love your stove, my Mom had one just like it before she 'upgraded " to her more modern one in the '60's. I would have loved the extra storage area for hot pots between the burners!
I used to live in Louisiana. We didn't go grocery shopping, we were "making groceries" LOL LOL Being from WI, people would ask me if I knew Laverne and Shirley!! LOL LOL Told them they lived downtown and I lived in the burbs. They were always disappointed.
I can't wait to try this, thank you!!! My mother uses those scented chemical pellets, I try to tell her they are NOT good but she ignores me 🙄 Maybe I will whip her up a batch of this and see if I can't convert her 😁
I watched several videos on this and now use it in our laundry. I also add 1/2 cup of baking soda to the Epsom salts. Not sure if the baking soda is helping or taking away from the essential oil smells. I’m going to try it without the baking soda also and see which is better.
Im from California. I now live in Georgia (also luved in South Carolina). I would visit my family and would be teased about my accent. I honestly dont hear it, but they swear I have one.
😂 First video I have ever seen by you & I love your personality, I had to subscribe..."40,000 drops" works for me! It was even funnier at the end when you said just 2 Cups of Epsom salt & 40 CUPS OF ESSENTIAL OIL....😂😂 I had to put on CC to see if I heard you right...I DID, go check it out 🤣🤣 did you have that glass of wine before you filmed...you are a hoot! ❤️👍🏻🤣
First...I am placing an order for some essential oils today 😊 Second...please tell me the year and model of your oven. I have been looking for one, but I absolutely love yours with the burners separated like that! Seems awesome for canning pots 😃
Aww, thanks! Our oven is a 1920’s Preway. I’ve only ever seen the one. Apparently they only made a handful of them. The burners set apart make it a canning stove.
I’ve got a question….if this Epsom salt with scent is added to the laundry machine when adding detergent, does the scent remain even after it has gone through the rinse cycle? Or is it best added to the rinse cycle? Keep your ideas coming. I look forward to seeing you! Abundant blessings!
@@LittleHillHomesteadGa I did make up the Epsom salt mix and used it in the wash cycle. I’m disappointed that after the laundry was completed, and dried….there was no scent detected at all. 😮
I am from San Bernardino, California, and moved to New Mexico when I was 15. I do the same thing with the accent!! If I get upset or tired, my picked up southern drawl comes out!! I think it’s because a southern accent is just a valley girl accent slowed down, or a valley girl accent is just a southern drawl sped up!! 😂
When you do the “dryer sheets,” do they take care of static cling as well? Your videos on laundry are amazing, by the way! I just happened to catch your scent boost video in my newsfeed and now I’m hooked. So easy and so cheap!!! I love it! Thank you so much. 💜💜💜
I'm a new subscriber, and I'm glad I came across your channel. I use store-bought scents, and I'm going to make yours. When you live somewhere, you'll pick up the accent. I'm Southern, and if you were around me much, you'd sound really Southern, lol.
I have lived in several different states across the country and have a blend of accents in my speech. I pick it up like a chameleon in each environment, none of each ever goes completely away.
My son has said: “Mom, you do realize your not southern, right?” My answer is: “Yes, but I’m at the age where I don’t care how or what accent I’ve taken on, just adapt!! And if one day I get into a coma, I hope I develop a southern accent when I wake up!!”
You said you use dry measuring cups for dry ingredients and liquid measuring cups for dry ingredients. What do you use for wet ingredients 😂@@DorothyLaredo
I actually don't have a liquid of gel version yet. We cannot do the gel since we are on septic and they can cause issues. I wish I could provide you with one!
Great video I did subscribe you have the best personality and your accent is great Im also a cali girl living in rural Texas Amy accent is just like yours.
I am loving all of your recipes for household items. I am going to try these for sure! I love smells, and it is nice to know these are healthier. Thank you!
I've been doing this for years now. Sometimes I add table salt as well for washing sweaty gym clothes. So good and can be personalised as well. Greetings from Australia. ❤
OMG ! I needed this in my life! Thank you for sharing 😊 so you add that to the soap dispenser? Do I have that correct? Loving your videos,keep them coming 😊
Just beware of cheap essential oils if you are trying to stay away from "perfume" chemicals. Sadly a lot of cheap oils only have a fraction of true essential oils rest is chemical garbage. I think Now brand is ok, I'm sure there are others😊
@laffytaffy2916 I have never heard of that. We always have to put salt in our water softening system. So what is it in Epsom salt that causes it to rust?
I laughed so much when you went on about accents. I was all that's me too. My view is Californians don't tend to have accents unless you're from the Valley so we pick up accents very easily when we've relocated to other parts of the country. I'm going to have to try this since strong scents don't agree with my sinuses and body.
bergamot is a mood elevator and smells great. It's my fave
Yes!
Mine too

I have never tried this before, but I have dropped essential oil into free and clear Downey. I love Jasmine and Bergamot scents.
Why did I not ever think of this?
I also put essential oils on my Wool dryer balls And put them in my drawer
Sorry dryer
I do too! Smell so good!!
Do you get oil spots on your clothing at all?

Could you use baking soda instead of Epsom salts?
Some people do half and half. I use baking soda in my laundry soap so I don’t add it to this
Just came across your site and cannot believe talking about laundry could be so funny. Go girl!
Thank you! ☺️
Thank you
Can you recommend a good budget friendly essential oil brand and best place to get them? Thank you!
Typically I look on Amazon and look for certain scents and choose the low price ones. I like the basic kits that have a handful of options.
I like vitality extracts, good products and prices. I used to buy other brands but retired and this one is more affordable.
@@valeden4725 great thank you!!
Just beware of cheap essential oils if you are trying to stay away from "perfume" chemicals. Sadly a lot of cheap oils only have a fraction of true essential oils rest is chemical garbage. I think Now brand is ok, I'm sure there are others😊
Rain Country can help point you in the right direction 😊
Thanks
Oh and epson salt makes your water hard and rusts inside of the metal of your machine!
Washing Soda or Borax soften water!
@laffytaffy2916 I have never heard of that. We always have to put salt in our water softening system. So what is it in Epsom salt that causes it to rust?
Can you buy scented epsom salt and and oil to the lavender
Others have said it worked.
You also just made bath salts.
Sure did! Good catch.
Thank you!
Hey, this is so smart‼️ Thank you🙋♀️
What about using just the scented Dr.Teals?
Give it a try! I haven’t yet so I would try a small batch on something that if it leaves oil marks you are okay with like old towels.
You had me at "Dollar Gentral"
😂🤣😂
I laughed so much when you went on about accents. I was all that's me too. My view is Californians don't tend to have accents unless you're from the Valley so we pick up accents very easily when we've relocated to other parts of the country.
I'm going to have to try this since strong scents don't agree with my sinuses and body.
What’s a good brand of essential oils?
We love fabulous frannie. We get it on Amazon. Azure standard has some good ones too.
Made some tonight, going to try it in my next load of laundry. Thank you for sharing!
Next time try this before the wine or after the booze snooze
If only this was the case. This is just how I am. 😂
Can you use drops of perfumes you like esp if they are oil based? Or does the scent have 2 be oul based?😊
Make a small batch and give it a try on some old towels or something to see. I’m not 100% sure.
Dollar Gentral- I say that too lol. Me, naw girl! I love Lilac and Rose. Lavender or Linen is a no go for me!
Can you use scented epsom salts as well? They have lavender...
You can!
Well looking forward to trying this you made my day with crazy happy self thank you
Love watching your videos. I feel like I am watching a good friend. Keep up the good videos.
imo, that wooden spoon might be sucking up some of that oil..im going to try this w lavender but im using a metal spoon.
