Easy DIY Carpet powder! We have dogs, a toddler and an infant. I wanted to still vacuum our carpets but without all of the harmful chemicals. This powder took me less than 5 minutes to make. And house smells amazing!

Ingredients:
1 Mason Jar (we keep these on hand for multiple things like elderberry syrup, bone broth, carpet powder and for drinking out of.)
10 drops Lemon essential oil (Antibacterial and anti-fungal properties.)
10 drops Lavender essential oil (Helps to repel bugs and soothing smell)
10 drops Purification essential oil (Helps to purify the air)
Instructions:
Drill holes into mason jar lid
Fill mason jar 3/4 of the way full with baking soda.
Add essential oils
Sprinkle on the carpet.
Allow to sit for at least 1 hour. Vacuum and enjoy a fresh scent without harmful chemicals.
*Note you can change the amount of drops to your scent preferences*

What a great idea! In our old house we had carpeting everywhere and I always used those powders but in the back of my mind wondered what was in them.

Oh I love this! Have you got any tips for hard floors (tile or wood)? We don’t currently have carpets but will again one day. X

What a marvelous idea. At the moment we are planning to take out our existing carpet and add new carpet to the bedrooms. I will keep this in mind, for certain.
