DIY Lavender Room Spray

How to dry fresh lavender & make a room spray

It can be tricky trying to relax & unwind after a long day but I find that using aroma therapy can really help get you to a calm space and state of mind. One of my favorite is using fresh lavender. Many people have lavender growing in their gardens and if not it's easy to find at a local plant nursery. I found this wonderful DIY on how to cut, dry & create your own room spray. A few sprays onto my pillow and around the bedroom is all I need to relax and have a good night's rest. 


When you cut fresh lavender you want to try and keep them all at the same length so drying is easier. Cut them about 4 inches above the bottom of the plant. Gardening shears make this task go far more quickly.


When it comes to drying the lavender, you will want to tie small bunches to prevent molding and hang them to dry out. You may dry them outside in the shade but I prefer drying them in a dark low humidity room. Your lavender will be dry in about 3-5 days and ready for use.

For the lavender spray you'll need distilled water, rubbing alcohol (or vodka) and your choice of either fresh lavender or lavender essential oil. If you use fresh lavender you may want to avoid spraying onto your linens as they may stain due to the lavender's natural color!

For making the fresh lavender spray you'll need to place the fresh lavender into a jar with vodka and store it in a dark cool place for about a week. during that time, you'll notice the vodka will absorb the lavender color.
