Diffuser

I'm putting eucalyptus oil in the diffuser trying to combat allergies. 

Candle Simmering Pot

I made this simmering pot in ceramics a long time ago. Today I went to Hobby Lobby looking for a diffuser. I didn't find one, but I bought sweet orange essential oil because I thought it would make a nice fragrance in the kitchen. I used it with a tea candle in my little simmering pot. The fragrance was light and pleasant but totally overpowered by the apples.

The apples are from our tree. The bowl with water in it also has salt to prevent the chopped apples from discoloring.  This is about half of what we picked from the tree. We got about two WalMart bags of apples from the ground and took them to a kid who has chickens. They are cute puff-headed chickens...he said they are Polish chickens.

Travel Containers

I've been using essential oils lately. Some of the oils are all right for straight usage. Some require dilution with another oil. I'm using grapeseed oil. It's  four ounces of grapeseed oil to a couple of drops of essential oil. I was putting the mix into a bowl, but I don't use the whole amount at one time. I had some travel containers from WalMart. It's the perfect size. So I went back to get another pack. This time the containers are blue...but still inexpensive and the perfect size.
