What to do to keep your home smelling good

1. Freshen up the carpets

They absorb odors very well. And if you spill food on the carpet or have pets, it can ruin the spirit in the entire apartment. To fix this problem, sprinkle baking soda on the surface and let it sit for a few hours, then vacuum it up. This method will also work with animal bedding, which can also produce unpleasant odors.

2. Clean up the trash can

Particles of food and other waste may remain on it. Wash it thoroughly, and when it dries, place a cotton ball soaked in essential oil under the garbage bag. Do not forget to carry out this procedure regularly.

3. Boil water with fruits or herbs on the stove

Pour water into a small saucepan, add lemon or orange slices, and mint or lavender. Let the water sit on the fire for a while after boiling, and soon your apartment will be filled with pleasant smells. Experiment and choose fruits and herbs to your liking.

4. Arrange scented candles around the apartment

Moreover, it is not even necessary to light them. Place a candle in a closet with bedding, clothes and other unexpected places. Every time you open the door, you will smell your favorite scent, and clothes and other textiles will absorb the scent.

5. Get indoor plants

They will not only decorate your home, but also purify the air. And some will also fill it with a pleasant scent - for example, geranium, lavender or eucalyptus. Just be prepared to take care of them.

6. Turn on the vents

Attach a car scent to them. When air passes through them, a pleasant aroma will spread through the apartment.
