I love keeping an air freshener in my car, especially when they’re in fun shapes and scents! I don’t have a problem with those tiny little scented trees, but I do believe your car should reflect your personality (and not just your driving skills)! So I decided to make a few of my own car air fresheners out of felt and essential oil. I free-handed the shapes I wanted on felt, cut them out, added some string in a loop, and glued my pieces together.
These air fresheners would make great gifts for back-to-school kids to hang in their lockers. Just package them in a cellophane bag with a cute label and gift! They’re also good for around the house or in the office. I like them because they’re cheaper to make than buying a pack of air fresheners in the store and eco-friendly because you can keep refreshing them with oil! Just make sure to add the oil right before hanging!
