DIY Fabric freshener? Yes, please! With Scentsy!

In our world today, we have Pinterest to thank for the *many* DIY projects that we can dive headfirst into.  They make us feel like better women...right??  Who needs the store bought stuff when you can pioneer your way and make your own.  I admit, everything I see I think, "Man, I can do that..." and then I do it.  Half of the time it works, half of the time it fails.  (Face it, things just don't turn out like the pictures show they do!)

Well, I am all about DIY laundry detergent.  It's been a recent craze on Pinterest and Facebook.  I even blogged about making it and using Scentsy Washer Whiffs...because Washer Whiffs make things waaaayyyy better.  ;)

So when I saw a post recently about DIY fabric freshener (Febreze), I thought "WOW, I can do that...with Scentsy!"  So here you have it....a simple DIY fabric softener using Scentsy's Washer Whiffs. 
 

 
What you need:
A water squirt bottle
Water
Baking Soda
Scentsy Washer Whiffs
 
My bottle is 18 ozs, so this recipe is for that size bottle but these ingredients are so harmless, you can add more or less to your liking and there should be no harm done.  :)
 
1.  Fill up your bottle with HOT water.
2.  Put between 1-2 tablespoons of baking soda in (I used a rolled up paper towel as a "funnel")
 
3.  Add Scentsy Washer Whiffs - I used approx. half a cap full (I wanted more scent so I added more than my pic shows)
 
4.  Close your bottle and SHAKE it!
 
(above pic shows before I shook it, while the washer whiffs were still disolving)
 
The mix will STAY CLOUDY, and I did notice when it sits for a while you need to shake it back up before spraying again.  ;)
 
There you have it!!  Let me tell you, I sprayed every fabric in my house to "test" and make sure there were no weird stains.  Shower curtain, mattresses, sheets, dining room chair seats, dog bed and EVEN my microfiber couch.  The entire house smelled amazing and the whole 18 ozs was gone the same day. (Only because I went crazy and literally sprayed the whole house!)
 
Enjoy!!
