Today:&nbsp;a freshening spray for bed and bath linens, for a bit of luxury in bed and the sense that your linens have been hung to dry outside (even if they haven\u2019t).<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/2089519368565735339.jpg\">  <br \/>Above: The summer bedroom, breeze included. Photograph by Justine Hand.   <\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s nothing like the smell of linens hung to dry in the sun, or, better yet, a summer bedroom with the windows flung open. A substitute you can bottle (in the off-season too): \u201cLinen sprays are a great way to provide daily freshness to sheets and towels,\u201d De La Fuente says. \u201cThey also help to take care of stagnant air in a bedroom, living room, or bathroom.\u201d&nbsp;Here\u2019s how.<\/p>\n<h2>To make a linen spray:<\/h2>\n<p>2 oz distilled water<br \/> 7 drops Lavender Essential Oil<br \/> 5 drops Cedarwood, Virginia Essential Oil<br \/> 3 drops Vetiver Essential Oil<\/p>\n<p>Add to a small glass spray bottle and shake well.&nbsp;Use as a spray, or dot the mixture&nbsp;on cotton balls and tuck into the linen closet.<\/p>\n<p>For a comforting blend, De La Fuente suggests mixing the distilled water&nbsp;with 10 drops Ylang Ylang Essential Oil, 20 drops Orange, Sweet Essential Oil, and four drops Neroli (Orange Flower) Essential Oil.<\/p>\n<p>N.B.: Take care before using essential oils, and always test in a small, discreet area of skin, clothing, or furniture before applying. \u201cEssential oils are the most potent form of plant medicine and must be respected and handled with care. Some essential oils may have contraindications for use when pregnant or for people with health conditions or skin sensitivities, so consult your physician before using,\u201d De La Fuente says.<\/p>\n<p>For the rest of our essential oils how-tos, see&nbsp;Essential Oils: 7 Smart DIYs for the Home.
