DIY Honeysuckle Reed Diffuser
A simple homemade reed diffuser with fractionated coconut oil and honeysuckle fragrance — fills the room with fresh floral scent.
Servings: 1 diffuser
Equipment
- Small jar with narrow opening
- Reeds
- Small funnel
- Measuring cups and spoons
Ingredients
- ½ cup fractionated coconut oil
- 2 tablespoons rubbing alcohol 91%
- 2-3 tablespoons honeysuckle fragrance oil
- reeds
- dried flowers optional, to go with reeds
Instructions
- Combine the oils. Add the fractionated coconut oil, rubbing alcohol, and honeysuckle fragrance oil to a small jar. Use a little more fragrance oil if the diffuser is going in a large room.
- Add the reeds. Place the reeds in the jar and let them soak up the oil for one hour.
- Flip the reeds. After an hour, flip the straight reeds over. This throws the scent and adds a real boost of freshness to the room.
Notes
Replace the oil every 2-3 months. If the scent fades, flip the reeds first — if that only helps briefly, swap in fresh reeds. Replace the oil entirely when the liquid is low, looks cloudy, or the reeds turn dark and sticky.
