How to Make a Homemade, Bakery Fragrance Oil for Air Freshener

Sometimes, the home just stinks. This quick idea will give any kid the ability to relax and work hard on their businesses while the delicious aromas swirl amongst them. If you don’t have time to bake a cake or cookies, why not fake it and still get all of the super tasty aromas floating through the air?

This idea is NOT to be done when there is no one home; someone should be at home when ANY device is one. Just wanted to make sure everyone plays it safe!

Making a Sweet, Vanilla and Cinnamon Cake Homemade Fragrance for the Home

Since you simply don’t have time to bake a cake, lets create a cool fake scent to fill the home. When you’re out of air freshener and the trash can is reeking, this will definitely help.

  • First, get out a saucepan and place it on the rangetop of the oven with a cup of water. Turn it onto Low, Simmer, or 1. Different ovens have different settings, and you want it on the lowest one possible. (maybe one notch above if there is a lot of stink in the room).
  • Next, grab some vanilla extract and add about 1 teaspoon to the water. You can add more if the scent is not strong enough; it all depends on the odors in the home, the size of the home, and whether or not there are animals who create additional odors.
  • Finally, grab some cinnamon and sprinkle it into the water. You don’t want to over power the vanilla, but you want a bit of that spicy, cinnamon scent to warm up the aromas. You can even add a few drops of lemon juice or some orange peel for a citrus blast.

Can Kids Get These Ingredients in the Pantry?

Almost every home has vanilla extract and cinnamon. These are two VERY common baking ingredients that are necessary in thousands of desserts and breakfast recipes. They can even help to create delicious and fluffy pancakes, so I’d check some of those recipes out on the web for the rest of the bottles. Also, if they cannot be found in the pantry, they are available at nearly EVERY grocery store and super store. Both can be super cheap.Pink_and_Black_Flower_Cupcake_(4592980660)

Where to Buy the Best Vanilla Extract for Homemade Fragrances, Oils, and Soaps

Vanilla extract can be bought in stores and online. The more expensive, pure, top quality extracts are usually a bit harder to find though. These can make optimal home fragrances, making them an excellent investment. The cheaper options will work, but it may require a bit more of the vanilla extract to achieve the same level of scent in the air. They also may not be as pure, or may not have as good of a smell. While vanilla extract is always delicious as a scent, sometimes quality always trumps the lower quality options.
