Hello,
I have a quick and easy project for you today using two of my favorite things - essential oils & stamps!
This natural DIY perfume not only smells wonderful it also looks beautiful displayed on a dresser or in a powder room. You can mix it up however you like by changing the scent, the bottle color and scrapbook paper. Below are the basic supplies you will need.
- Therapeutic-grade essential oils
- Carrier oil (fractionated coconut oil or jojoba oil)
- Glass atomizer bottle (2 oz.)
- Scrapbook paper
- Rubber stamps and ink
- Bows, ribbon or embellishments
- Small cotton bag
In an atomizer bottle combine 1 oz. of carrier oil with your essential oil. I can't really tell you how many drops as that depends on the desired intensity and how strong your oils are. I would recommend starting with 10 drops and go from there. You can add additional essential oils to create your own custom scent.
Cut a piece of scrapbook paper to fit around your bottle and adhere with glue. I also added some trim to the top of my paper for a finished look. Next, attach a bow or embellishment to the glass bottle.
On a cotton bag stamp your desired images. I created a 'Paris' theme using stamps by Cavallini Papers & Co., Inc. All images were stamped in StazOn ink.
Now you are ready to shake and spritz ... that's all there is to it.
Doesn't this make a cute little gift? Perfect as a stocking stuffer too! Simple things bring great joy ...
Enjoy your weekend!
