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.
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.
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 🙂
