Homemade Anti-Viral Room Sprays


Free Kindle Book - Homemade Anti-Viral Room Sprays

It’s a fact. You can help eliminate germs and fight viruses with homemade anti-viral room sprays.

Did you know, some airborne virus particles can float for a few hours before they fall and cling to a new surface? Once they come into contact with the new surface, the length of time they live there varies from surface to surface. For instance, some can live on cloth for two days, stainless steel for two to three days, and glass for four days.

Not only do essential oils fragrance your home, but also, they are useful in helping to fight nasty viruses and eliminate germs. This dual-purpose means that homemade anti-viral room sprays and air fresheners go a long way towards protecting your home and the health of those you love.

You may already know that eucalyptus, tea tree, and thyme essential oils have anti-viral properties. But are you also aware than cinnamon, clove, orange, and rosemary EOs are known for their anti-viral properties also?

So, why not use a combination of essential oils to provide fragrance to homemade room sprays along with their disinfecting and anti-viral properties? The good news is; you can certainly do this by using these homemade room spray recipes.

In this book, you will actually discover how to combine grain or rubbing alcohol and a handful of basic ingredients along with a blend of essential oils to create 50 homemade anti-viral room spray recipes. 

DIY Upside-Down Tomato Planters


This is a great thing to do with any extra cloth reusable bags that you have laying around. I have quite a few of them that I have gotten free in the mail.

This is so easy to do. Take the bag, cut a small hole in the bottom, insert the root ball (I wrapped the root ball in the fabric first to make it easier to get it through the hole), spread the fabric out across the hole to keep the soil in, add the soil, and water thoroughly. Hang up somewhere strong because these are HEAVY. Also , remember to hang them where they will get full sunshine for a few hours a day.

Use the smaller sized reuseable bags. This can get too heavy in one of those bigger sized bags.

You can also do this with a hanging planter. Just use the same idea with cutting a hole into the bottom of the pot.

Wood Burning Barrel Stove Kit


I saw one of these Wood Burning Barrel Stove Kits at the local True Value today and have to say that it is such a neat idea. I want one now. They only had one left and the salesperson walked by and heard me talking to my husband about it and how neat the idea was and she said that they had sold 29 of them today alone!!! How great that other people are thinking about being prepared and taking care of their families. I wonder where someone would get one of those big metal , burn safe, barrels from though????

ANYONE HAVE ONE OF THESE OR KNOWS ABOUT THEM PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!!
