How Do I Re-scent a Car Freshener?

Tired of buying air fresheners every month? Take hold of your DIY or green side and reuse the air freshener you have. A little essential oil, a zip-lock bag and your old air freshener and you will be set.

Preparation

  • For this to work, you will need to use one of the cardboard-type air fresheners, similar to the pine tree types that hang from your rearview mirror.

Re-scent

  • Place the air freshener inside the zip-lock bag. Pour in 20 to 30 drops of your favorite essential oils. Shut the bag and let sit for 10 to 20 minutes.

Reuse

  • To reuse, open the plastic bag and remove the air freshener. Hang the air freshener on the rearview mirror. Save the ziplock for another use.
