I live with 3 boys. So sometimes I need something that can help me make the house smell a little bit better. I’m also a wannabe hippie so I love the idea of good vibes and positivity and blah, blah, blah.
I love to diffuse oils but I also wanted to make a DIY room spray for good vibes to make it super easy to spritz around when needed. Because boys stink.
With just a few ingredients you can make your own essential oil-based room spray that will make your home smell great and bring all the good vibes with it.

This DIY Room Spray brings good vibes
Do you ever have one of those days? Yeah, one of THOSE days where either everything is going wrong or you just feel blah? I’ve been having way more of them than I would like to.
So I decided that I needed to figure out how to get myself out of my funk when I find myself in a downward spiral headed towards rocking back and forth in a corner.
I love essential oils and have tons of them (I think they are a great way to include a little “me time” during your day). I decided I needed to be more intentional with using them.
Regardless of whether you believe in oils or not, they smell amazing.
And to me, good smells help me shift my mind frame. I made this good vibes spray to help change my negative Nancy mood. Mom life can stress a gal out, yo.
I’m guessing you can use some good vibes too.
How to make DIY Room Spray with essential oils
Sometimes you can’t get a change of scenery to help alleviate your stress. But you can make your space feel different. Essential oils are a great way to do that.
While I really loved this combination, you can mix and match per your own preferences.
This smells amazing and if it happens to help lift up my spirits, all the better.
Rosewater room spray supplies
•glass spray bottle (I used a 4-ounce bottle)
•rose water
•witch hazel
•lavender essential oil
•bergamot essential oil
•ylang ylang essential oil
•lemon essential oil
•juniper berry essential oil
Instructions for your DIY room spray
To your glass bottle, add 1 ounce of witch hazel. Add your essential oils and put on the lid. Shake well. Add 3 ounces rose water. Put the lid back on and shake well again.
The witch hazel will help the oils distribute in the water better.
You will still need to shake well each time you use it but this will help it to mix really well.
Everybody knows that lavender is the best and totally relaxing. Ylang ylang, lemon, and bergamot are also mood uplifting and calming.
And while I picked Juniper Berry because of how the smell works with the other essential oils, it also helps relieve tension and stress.
Feel free to change up the oils based on the smells you like. Good vibes are just around the corner.
If you feel like you or your home are in a funk you should definitely make this DIY Room Spray for good vibes! This refreshing blend of essential oils will help change your mood! Just spritz and smile.

Hi Valerie, I found them on amazon. (affiliate link: https://amzn.to/3d1wENb ) . They’re so great for room sprays and even cleaners if you’re making your own!
Rachel says
I’m a newbie to essential oils. How much of each should you add please?
Sharon Garofalow says
Hi! So sorry about that! I’m in the process of updating my old posts and making sure they are more user friendly and actually giving you the recipe would certainly help right! (facepalm). I like to really smell my essential oils so I use a pretty heavy hand. Feel free to cut back if you feel like it’s too much. Just aim to keep the ratio fairly similar. I used about 10 drops of lavender, 10 of lemon, 5 ylang ylang, 5 of bergamot and 10 of juniper. Let me know how it turns out!

I made another room spray a few months ago with rose essential oil but I can’t remember how I made it. Tried this recipe out and it smells wonderful. I’ve pinned this recipe so when I run out I can make it again.

Thank you Sharon for the DIY Good Vibes Spray! I’m going to make it and pass out as Christmas gifts.
Sharon Garofalow says
Such a great idea!! I also have a holiday scent and printable labels on the site. But the Good Vibes spray is great for any time of year!

The dark arts? So because something is not European and Christian it is somehow bad? Yea, Imma skip you altogether.
Sharon Garofalow says
Hi and thank you for commenting. I think that maybe I phrased that wrong. It has nothing to do with being Peruvian but more the spirits, etc. I absolutely don’t think that if it’s not European and Christian it’s wrong. But as a Christian, certain things aren’t right for me. Anyone else can do what they want and should. I’m sorry that didn’t come across. I appreciate you speaking up. I also appreciate that I am not going to be everyone’s cup of tea. Waking up to a comment like this is always a good reminder to be careful with my words.
