The beauty of essential oils is that many oils blend together very well, creating the most pleasant scents in your home.

Below, you’ll find some of our favorite essential oils that blend well together. It’s important to remember that essential oils are very potent, so when it comes to blending them into one cleaner, you don’t want to overdo it. You may always add a few extra drops of oil later.

If you’re just getting started with natural cleaning, making an all-purpose surface cleaner is the best place to start. Homemade surface cleaner is super affordable, versatile, and allows you to experiment with your favorite essential oils. It serves an all-purpose role in the home and can be used to clean many surfaces.

Homemade All-Purpose Cleaner:

• 2 cups distilled water
• 1/4 cup castile soap
• 15 drops combined essential oils of choice

Instructions: Using a spray bottle, combine the water, castile soap and essential oils and shake. Store at room temperature.

To Use: Gently shake the spray bottle before spraying the cleaner on the desired surface. Spray the cleaner and wipe off the surface with a damp cloth - this is important to avoid a soapy residue.
