Basic Spray Recipe

Yield: 8 Ounces

6 ounces distilled water, tea or other favorite spirit

2 ounces hydrosol (or replace with 2 oz distilled water)

40 - 50 drops essential oil

1 teaspoon vodka or high proof alcohol or herbal tincture (optional)

8 ounce bottle with spray top

cyrstals or herbs, optional

Mix the alcohol with essential oils and add to your bottle or add essential oil directly to the bottle if you’re not using alcohol*. Add any decorative items like crystals and herbs if desired then top off with the water and screw the spray top on tightly. Allow the mixture to synergize for no less than 24 hours. Shake well before each use and used as desired to lightly scent a room and to invoke the energy of this spray.

*replace the hydrosol with vodka if you are planning on using tea instead of water otherwise, keep it refrigerated and use it within 5 days. You can also use 8 full oz of alcohol for the best perserving power.

Magic Maker Tip
