10 WAYS TO MAKE YOUR HOME SMELL INCREDIBLE! FALL & HOLIDAY EDITION

**Creating a Cozy Home with Fall Fragrance Cleaning Products**

As the fall season approaches, many of us want to create a cozy and inviting atmosphere in our homes. One way to achieve this is by using fragrant cleaning products that evoke the scents of the season. I recently discovered a line of fall and holiday scented cleaning products from Mrs. Meyer's, which includes apple cider, acorn spice, and peony scents. These products are not only pleasant-smelling but also gentle on surfaces, making them perfect for everyday use.

To get the most out of these products, I like to dilute them slightly, as some can be overpowering if used full strength. This allows me to create a subtle yet effective fragrance that fills my home without being too overwhelming. For example, I use the cinnamon broom and pine cone scents in my cleaning routine, which not only smell amazing but also add a decorative touch to my space. You can easily make your own pine cones and cinnamon sprays at home using essential oils and water. Simply bake pine cones in the oven until they're dry, then spray them with a mixture of cinnamon essential oil and water for a long-lasting fragrance.

**Aromatherapy through Decorative Elements**

In addition to cleaning products, there are many other ways to create a cozy atmosphere in your home. One method I love is using decorative elements that release fragrances as they warm up. The Waxman brand offers a range of scented wax melts and warmers that are not only visually appealing but also provide a soft, soothing fragrance throughout the day. Their fall-inspired wax warmer, with its tree-shaped design, is particularly beautiful and has become a favorite in my home.

To get the most out of your wax warmer, you can use it to melt wax or potpourri. The Waxman company offers pre-made wax melts in various fragrances, including seasonal scents like pumpkin spice and apple cinnamon. Alternatively, you can create your own scented wax blends using soy wax and essential oils. This allows you to customize the fragrance to your liking and experiment with different combinations.

**Candles for a Cozy Ambiance**

No fall or holiday decor would be complete without candles. I'm particularly fond of the Capri Blue brand, which offers a range of seasonal scents like pumpkin dolce and vanilla bean. Their candles are not only beautifully designed but also provide a warm, inviting glow that sets the mood for cozying up with loved ones.

When it comes to lighting candles, there's one hack I swear by: using a wick dipper to blow out the flame. This technique not only preserves the fragrance of the candle but also helps prevent soot from building up on the wax. It's a simple trick that makes all the difference in the way your candles smell and perform.

**A DIY Potpourri Wreath**

Finally, I love incorporating homemade potpourri elements into my decor to add an extra layer of fragrance and texture to my space. You can make a beautiful fall or holiday potpourri wreath using pre-made ingredients like pinecones, dried flowers, and cinnamon sticks. Simply glue your chosen elements onto a wire or wooden wreath frame (or use a cardboard cutout as a base) and hang it on your wall or place it in a corner of your room.

By incorporating these simple yet effective ideas into your home decor, you can create a cozy atmosphere that's perfect for the fall season. From fragrant cleaning products to decorative elements and candles, there are many ways to make your home smell amazing without breaking the bank. Happy decorating!

smell even better because you can really amp up that cinnamon fragrance and they'll last longer because sometimes with those they just don't last very long so what you want to do is get your pine cones place them on a foil line sheet tray and bake them in the oven at 200 degrees fahrenheit for 45 minutes then you want to get 25 drops of cinnamon essential oil with a quarter cup of water in a spray bottle and spray your freshly baked pine cones with that mixture and then cover it up i just put foil on top so we can really absorb in the fragrance i also added about five drops of my vanilla fragrance oil to it as well to get a little vanilla undertone to these then open them up you can put them in bowls and display them around your house it doubles as decor and it just smells phenomenal next up something that i think is seriously underrated and that is the waxman i find that the fragrance lasts longer and it's just a softer smoother type of a fragrance in the air and something that's so cool is they now have wax warmers that are decorative and they're kind of like display pieces in your home so they have this fall inspired wax warmer that lights up and looks like beautiful fall
