It is almost Christmas! Only five days to go. If you have a few guests on their way for the holidays, try making a DIY room spray that smells like a little piece of Christmas. You could stick it in your guest bathroom, or spritz a little in the entry before guests arrive. It literally takes 30 seconds to make; perfect for the busy holiday season.
Switch up the essential oil to use this recipe any time of the year.
Here’s What You’ll Need to Make DIY Room Spray
- 1 oz. Vodka
- 3 oz. Distilled Water
- 15 drops Christmas Spirit Essential Oil, or another oil you love- Not sure where to buy essential oils? Check out this post.
- Glass Measuring Cup
- 4 oz Glass Spray Bottle (These are the ones I used)- When using essential oils, it’s always best to use glass containers for storage because some essential oils will eat through plastic.
Directions: How to Make DIY Room Freshener with Essential Oils
Combine the vodka and essential oil together in a glass measuring cup. Mix thoroughly. Then add the distilled water; stirring to combine. Last thing is to pour the mixture into the glass spray bottle. Done.
Add a label it if you’d like…
When you are ready to use, make sure you shake the bottle a bit as the oil will naturally separate from the water. Spritz a few times into the air, and you’ll experience the delightful smell of Christmas.

I saw you on a talk show one morning during the holidays. Your Room Spray Formula is awesome! It was a hit at the Galentine’s Night with my Best friend & God Daughter. We made our own fragrances & made gifts for Valentine’s the next day. I love your site.
Hi Erin,
I was wondering since there isn’t a big amount of essential oil in it, is it ok if I just use clear bottles?
Thank you,
Gloria
Dumb question Erin…….How much will it matter if that I didn’t follow the order of ingredients the way you showed?? I wasn’t paying close attention and I mixed my vodka and distilled water and then my oil. Did I ruin it ?? I still mixed it very well, but I want to make sure I didn’t goof. LOL Thanks ! Janette
Is there anything you could usre instead of vodka??
The reason I use vodka is because it doesn’t have any smell. You can substitute witch hazel, but know that it does have a bit of a smell that could affect scent of the spray a bit.
Love the smell of Christmas Spirit!!! All of my kids asked for their own spray for Christmas.
Smells so good 🙂
